Multi-scale Structure Formation and Dynamics in Cosmic Plasmas[electronic resource] /edited by Andre Balogh, Andrei Bykov, Jonathan Eastwood, Jelle Kaastra. - 1st ed. 2016. - V, 357 p. 180 illus., 118 illus. in color.online resource. - Space Sciences Series of ISSI,511385-7525 ;. - Space Sciences Series of ISSI,53.

1. Multi-scale Structure Formation and Dynamics in Cosmic Plasmas -- 2. Electric Current Circuits in Astrophysics -- 3. Magnetic Helicity and Large Scale Magnetic Fields: A Primer -- 4. Large-Scale Structure Formation: from the first non-linear objects to massive galaxy clusters -- 5. Structures and components in galaxy clusters: observations and models -- 6. Supernova Remnants Interacting with Molecular Clouds: X-Ray and Gamma-Ray Signatures -- 7. The Heliosphere: What did we learn in recent years and the current challenges -- 8. Structures in the Outer Solar Atmosphere -- 9. What Controls the Structure and Dynamics of Earth’s Magnetosphere? -- 10. Properties of Magnetic Field Fluctuations in the Earth’s Magnetotail and Implications for the General Problem of Structure Formation in Hot Plasmas -- 11. Current Sheets in the Earth Magnetotail.

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.
