Fundamentals of Cosmic Electrodynamics
Author: B.V. Somov
Publisher: Springer Science & Business Media
ISBN: 9401111847
Category : Science
Languages : en
Pages : 367
Book Description
Cosmic electrodynamics is the specific branch of plasma physics which studies electromagnetic phenomena -- mostly the role of electromagnetic forces in dynamics of highly-conducting compressible medium in the solar interior and atmosphere, solar wind, in the Earth's magnetosphere and magnetospheres of other planets as well as pulsars and other astrophysical objects. This textbook is written to be used at several different levels. It is aimed primarily at beginning graduate students who are assumed to have a knowledge of basic physics. Starting from the language of plasma physics, from Maxwell's equations, the author guides the reader into the more specialized concepts of cosmic electrodynamics. The main attention in the book is paid to physics rather than maths. However, the clear mathematical image of physical processes in space plasma is presented and spelled out in the surrounding text. There is not another way to work in modern astrophysics at the quantitative level. The book will also be useful for professional astronomers and for specialists, who investigate cosmic plasmas from space, as well as for everybody who is interested in modern astrophysics.

Cosmic Electrodynamics
Author: Gregory D. Fleishman
Publisher: Springer Science & Business Media
ISBN: 1461457823
Category : Science
Languages : en
Pages : 729
Book Description
This book presents the fundamental concepts of the theory, illustrated by numerous examples of astrophysical applications. Classical concepts are combined with new developments and the authors demarcate what is well established and what is still under debate. To book illustrates how apparently complicated phenomena can be addressed and understood using well-known physical principles and equations within appropriate approximations and simplifications. For this purpose, a number of astrophysical examples are considered in greater detail than what is normally presented in a regular textbook. In particular, a number of nonlinear self-consistent models are considered, which is motivated by the latest observational data and modern theory.

Author: J. W. Dungey
Publisher: Cambridge University Press
ISBN: 1316601870
Category : Science
Languages : en
Pages : 195
Book Description
Originally published in 1958, this informative textbook was primarily designed for undergraduate students and presents a classical account of cosmic electrodynamics, as well as addressing the rapid changes and growth in the field and discussing the new and emerging developments at the time of publication. Detailed, clearly written and replete with equations and diagrams, this book systematically includes a section on each major topic and explains both the physics of the subject as well as the mathematics necessary for a thorough and full understanding. Multiple topics and sub topics are considered and analysed, including the velocity-distribution method, magnetic storms and ionospheric electrodynamics. This book captures the very dynamism and vibrancy of the subject and goes into much greater detail than most physics textbooks at the time. It will be of significant value to scholars of astrophysics as well as to anyone with an interest in the history of education.

Lectures On Cosmology And Action-at-a-distance Electrodynamics
Author: Fred Hoyle
Publisher: World Scientific
ISBN: 9814499358
Category : Science
Languages : en
Pages : 149
Book Description
This book describes the subject of electrodynamics at classical as well as quantum level, developed as an interaction at a distance. Thus it has electric charges interacting with one another directly and not through the medium of a field. In general such an interaction travels forward and backward in time symmetrically, thus apparently violating the principle of causality. It turns out, however, that in such a description the cosmological boundary conditions become very important. The theory therefore works only in a cosmology with the right boundary conditions; but when it does work it is free from the divergences that plague a quantum field theory.
