| Description: |
This volume contains the lecture notes presented at the 24th Advanced Course of the Swiss Society for Astrophysics and Astronomy, held in March 1994 at Les Diablerets, Switzerland. The contributors focus on kinetic plasma physics, particle acceleration and magnetohydrodynamics. |
| Synopsis: |
In three lectures on magnetohydrodynamics, on kinetic plasma physics and on particle acceleration, leading experts describe the physical basis of their subjects and extend the discussion to several applications in modern problems of astrophysics. The themes developed in this book will be helpful in understanding many processes in the universe from the solar corona to active galaxies. |
