| 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 |

| Title | Microphysics of Cosmic Plasmas |
| Author(s) | Balogh, Andr??;Bykov, Andrei;Cargill, Peter;Dendy, Richard;Dudok de Wit, Thierry;Raymond, John |
| Publication | New York, NY, Springer US, 2014. |
| Description | VI, 637 p : online resource |
| Abstract Note | This title presents a review of the detailed aspects of the physical processes that underlie the observed properties, structures and dynamics of cosmic plasmas. An assessment of the status of understanding of microscale processes in all astrophysical collisionless plasmas is provided. The topics discussed include?? turbulence in astrophysical and solar system plasmas as a phenomenological description of their dynamic properties on all scales;??observational, theoretical and modelling aspects of collisionless magnetic reconnection; the formation and dynamics of shock waves; and a review and assessment of microprocesses, such as the hierarchy of plasma instabilities, non-local and non-diffusive transport processes and ionisation and radiation processes.?? In addition, some of the lessons that have been learned from the extensive existing knowledge of laboratory plasmas as applied to astrophysical problems are also covered. ?? This volume is aimed at graduate students and researchers active in the areas of cosmic plasmas and space science. ?? Originally published in Space Science Reviews journal, Vol. 278/2-4, 2013 |
