| Title | Plasma Astrophysics : Kinetic Processes in Solar and Stellar Coronae |
| Author(s) | Benz, Arnold O |
| Publication | Dordrecht, Springer Netherlands, 2002. |
| Description | XVII, 309 p. 45 illus : online resource |
| Abstract Note | This textbook is intended as an introduction to the physics of solar and stellar coronae, emphasizing kinetic plasma processes. It is addressed to observational astronomers, graduate students, and advanced undergraduates without a ba- ground in plasma physics. Coronal physics is today a vast field with many different aims and goals. So- ing out the really important aspects of an observed phenomenon and using the physics best suited for the case is a formidable problem. There are already several excellent books, oriented toward the interests of astrophysicists, that deal with the magnetohydrodynamics of stellar atmospheres, radiation transport, and radiation theory. In kinetic processes, the different particle velocities play an important role. This is the case when particle collisions can be neglected, for example in very brief phenomena ??? such as one period of a high-frequency wave ??? or in effects produced by energetic particles with very long collision times. Some of the most persistent problems of solar physics, like coronal heating, shock waves, flare energy release, and particle acceleration, are likely to be at least partially related to such p- cesses. Study of the Sun is not regarded here as an end in itself, but as the source of information for more general stellar applications. Our understanding of stellar processes relies heavily, in turn, on our understanding of solar processes. Thus an introduction to what is happening in hot, dilute coronae necessarily starts with the plasma physics of our nearest star |

| Title | Coronal Magnetic Energy Releases : Proceedings of the CESRA Workshop Held in Caputh/Potsdam, Germany 16???20 May 1994 |
| Author(s) | Benz, Arnold O;Kr??ger, Albrecht |
| Publication | Berlin, Heidelberg, Springer Berlin Heidelberg, 1995. |
| Description | X, 286 p : online resource |
| Abstract Note | This book brings together a variety of review articles on dynamical phenomena in the solar corona in order to work out the unifying aspects of magnetic energy releases. The experimental data from groundbased methods of radio astronomy as well as from satellites are also discussed. The book addresses researchers in astrophysics, and planetary science but should also be accessible to graduate students |
