Coronal Mass Ejections
Springer 2011; US$ 99.99The book introduces the solar coronal mass ejection phenomena. This includes both those observed in the corona and those further from the Sun, known as interplanetary coronal mass ejections. We discuss the history and physics behind these phenomena, theories describing their launch and evolution, association with other solar eruptive phenomena, and... more...
The Sun, the Solar Wind, and the Heliosphere
Springer 2011; US$ 99.99This volume represents the state of the art of the science covered by the International Association of Geomagnetism and Aeronomy (IAGA) Division IV: Solar Wind and Interplanetary Field. It contains a collection of contributions by top experts addressing and reviewing a variety of topics included under the umbrella of the division. It covers subjects... more...
From the Outer Heliosphere to the Local Bubble
Springer 2009; US$ 169.99Knowledge about the outer heliosphere and the interstellar medium, which were long treated as two separate fields, has improved dramatically over the years. This volume provides a synopsis of these developments organised into seven sections. It concludes with four papers providing the 'big picture'. more...
The STEREO Mission
Springer 2008; US$ 189.99The STEREO mission uses twin heliospheric orbiters to track solar disturbances from their initiation to 1 AU. This book documents the mission, its objectives, the spacecraft that execute it and the instruments that provide the measurements, both remote sensing and in situ. This mission promises to unlock many of the mysteries of how the Sun produces... more...
The Heliosphere Through the Solar Activity Cycle
Springer 2007; US$ 119.99Understanding how the Sun changes though its 11-year sunspot cycle and how these changes affect the vast space around the Sun ??? the heliosphere ??? has been one of the principal objectives of space research since the advent of the space age. This book presents the evolution of the heliosphere through an entire solar activity cycle. The last solar... more...
Coronal Mass Ejections
Springer 2007; US$ 179.99Offers a comprehensive and integrated overview of our present knowledge and understanding of Coronal Mass Ejections (CMEs) and their descendants, Interplanetary CMEs (ICMEs). This book is intended to provide scientists active in space physics research with an understanding of CMEs and ICMEs and their effects in the heliosphere. more...
Solar Dynamics and Its Effects on the Heliosphere and Earth
Springer 2007; US$ 169.99The SOHO and Cluster missions form a single ESA cornerstone. Yet they observe very different regions in our solar system: the solar atmosphere on one hand and the Earth??'s magnetosphere on the other. At the same time the Ulysses mission provides observations in the third dimension of the heliosphere, and many others add to the picture from the... more...
Basics of the Solar Wind
Cambridge University Press 2007; US$ 63.00Introduction to solar wind for researchers and graduate students in atmospheric physics and astrophysics. more...
Physics of the Solar Corona
Springer-Verlag Berlin and Heidelberg GmbH & Co. KG 2006; US$ 84.99Based on spacecraft observations, this book provides an introduction to solar physics. It introduces the solar corona, which has a temperature of several million degrees, and sets it in the context of basic plasma physics. It also describes spectacular phenomena, such as solar flares and coronal mass ejections and their effects on the Earth. more...
