Book Description

Alfvén Waves Across HeliophysicsProgress, Challenges, and Opportunities Alfvén waves are fundamental to the dynamics of space plasmas. Recent advances in our knowledge about Alfvén waves have come from several directions, including new space missions to unexplored heliospheric regions, sophisticated rocket campaigns in the auroral zone, enlarged magnetometer arrays and radar networks, and significant advances in computer modeling. Alfvén Waves Across Heliophysics:Progress, Challenges, and Opportunities is an interdisciplinary collaboration from different space science communities to review recent and current Alfvén wave research. Volume highlights include:Alfvén waves in the solar atmosphereAlfvén waves at the giant planetsAlfvén waves at MarsAlfvén waves in moon-magnetosphere systemsAlfvén waves in geospaceAlfvén waves in the laboratoryThe American Geophysical Union promotes discovery in Earth and space science for the benefit of humanity. Its publications disseminate scientific knowledge and provide resources for researchers, students, and professionals.
