TitleMulti-scale Structure Formation and Dynamics in Cosmic Plasmas
Author(s)Balogh, Andre;Bykov, Andrei;Eastwood, Jonathan;Kaastra, Jelle
PublicationNew York, NY, Springer New York, 2016.
DescriptionV, 357 p. 180 illus., 118 illus. in color : online resource
Abstract NoteThis 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

TitleClusters of Galaxies: Beyond the Thermal View
Author(s)Kaastra, Jelle
PublicationNew York, NY, Springer New York, 2008.
DescriptionIV, 418 p : online resource
Abstract NoteClusters of galaxies are the largest structures in the Universe. Most of the visible matter is in the form of hot gas permeating the volume of the cluster. The bulk of this gas is in thermal equilibrium in the dark matter-dominated potential. This book discusses all aspects of cluster physics beyond this thermal view. It covers topics such as the warm-hot intergalactic medium outside the clusters, non-thermal radiation components, shocks, equilibration processes and the chemical evolution of these structures. The topics are covered from an observational, theoretical and numerical point of view. This volume provides a useful reference for astronomers and graduate students, in particular for those who are working in high-energy astrophysics and extra-galactic astronomy
