| Title | The Solar System |
| Author(s) | Encrenaz, Th??r??se;Bibring, Jean-Pierre;Blanc, M;Barucci, Maria-Antonietta;Roques, Francoise;Zarka, Philippe |
| Publication | Berlin, Heidelberg, Springer Berlin Heidelberg, 2004. |
| Description | XII, 514 p : online resource |
| Abstract Note | This text treats our knowledge of the solar system from an astrophysical point of view. Part 1 deals with the formation of the solar system and its interaction with the interplanetary medium. Part 2 presents its various objects: planets and satellites, asteroids, comets, trans-neptunian objects and interplanetary dust. The final sections on extrasolar planetary systems and on the search for life in the Universe round off an introduction to a field that has grown dramatically following the space missions of the last twenty years. Over the last decade many exciting observations have helped to reshape our understanding of the solar system and planetary science. In the third corrected and revised edition of this classic on the astrophysics of our solar system, students and lecturers in astronomy and planetary science as well as planet observers will find a mine of up-to-date information |

| Title | Planetary Atmospheric Electricity |
| Author(s) | Leblanc, Fran??ois;Aplin, Karen;Yair, Yoav;Harrison, Giles;Lebreton, Jean Pierre;Blanc, M |
| Publication | New York, NY, Springer New York, 2008. |
| Description | VI, 532 p : online resource |
| Abstract Note | This volume presents our contemporary understanding of atmospheric electricity at Earth and in other solar system atmospheres. It is written by experts in terrestrial atmospheric electricity and planetary scientists. Many of the key issues related to planetary atmospheric electricity are discussed. The physics presented in this book includes ionisation processes in planetary atmospheres, charge generation and separation, and a discussion of electromagnetic signatures of atmospheric discharges. The measurement of thunderstorms and lightning, including its effects and hazards, is highlighted by articles on ground and space based instrumentation, and new missions.Theory and modelling of planetary atmospheric electricity complete this review of the research that is undertaken in this exciting field of space science. This book is an essential research tool for space scientists and geoscientists interested in electrical effects in atmospheres and planetary systems. Graduate students and researchers who are new to the field will benefit from the introductory overviews and can quickly expand their knowledge by studying the subsequent sections |
