| Title | Introduction to modern magnetohydrodynamics |
| Author(s) | Sebastien Galtier |
| Publication | Cambridge, Cambridge University Press, 2016. |
| Description | xv,268p. |
| Abstract Note | Ninety-nine percent of ordinary matter in the Universe is in the form of ionized fluids, or plasmas. The study of the magnetic properties of such electrically conducting fluids, magnetohydrodynamics (MHD), has become a central theory in astrophysics, as well as in areas such as engineering and geophysics. This textbook offers a comprehensive introduction to MHD and its recent applications, in nature and in laboratory plasmas; from the machinery of the Sun and galaxies, to the cooling of nuclear reactors and the geodynamo. It exposes advanced undergraduate and graduate students to both classical and modern concepts, making them aware of current research and the ever-widening scope of MHD. Rigorous derivations within the text, supplemented by over 100 illustrations and followed by exercises and worked solutions at the end of each chapter, provide an engaging and practical introduction to the subject and an accessible route into this wide-ranging field. |

| Title | Physics of the solar corona: An introduction |
| Author(s) | Markus J. Aschwanden |
| Publication | Chichester, Praxis Publishing, 2004. |
| Description | xix, 842p. |
| Contents Note | The book focuses on new physical insights that have mostly been obtained from the last two decades of space missions, such as from soft X-ray observations with Yohkoh, extreme-ultraviolet (EUV) observations with SoHO and TRACE, and hard X-ray observations with COMPTON and the recently launched RHESSI. The last decade (1999-2002) has been the most exciting era in the exploration of the solar corona in all wavelenghts, producing unprecedented stunning pictures, movies, and high-precision spectral and temporal data |
