Title Multi-scale Structure Formation and Dynamics in Cosmic Plasmas Author(s) Balogh, Andre;Bykov, Andrei;Eastwood, Jonathan;Kaastra, Jelle Publication New York, NY, Springer New York, 2016. Description V, 357 p. 180 illus., 118 illus. in color : online resource Abstract Note This book offers eleven coordinated reviews on multi-scale structure formation in cosmic plasmas in the Universe. Observations and theories of plasma structures are presented in all relevant astrophysical contexts, from the Earth???s magnetosphere through heliospheric and galactic scales to clusters of galaxies and the large scale structure of the Universe. Basic processes in cosmic plasmas starting from electric currents and the helicity concept governing the dynamics of magnetic structures in planet magnetospheres, stellar winds, and relativistic plasma outflows like pulsar wind nebulae and Active Galactic Nuclei jets are covered. The multi-wavelength view from the radio to gamma-rays with modern high resolution telescopes discussed in the book reveals a beautiful and highly informative picture of both coherent and chaotic plasma structures tightly connected by strong mutual influence. The authors are all leading scientists in their fields, making this book an authoritative, up???to???date and enduring contribution to astrophysics ISBN,Price 9781493935475 Keyword(s) 1. EBOOK 2.
