Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: In 2010, NASA and the National Science Foundation asked the National Research Council to assemble a committee of experts to develop an integrated national strategy that would guide agency investments in solar and space physics for the years 2013-2022. That strategy, the result of nearly 2 years of effort by the survey committee, which worked with more than 100 scientists and engineers on eight supporting study panels, is presented in the 2013 publication, Solar and Space Physics: A Science for a Technological Society. This booklet, designed to be accessible to a broader audience of policymakers and the interested public, summarizes the content of that report.

Download or read book The Dynamic Magnetosphere written by William Liu and published by Springer Science & Business Media. This book was released on 2011-06-21 with total page 367 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Despite the plethora of monographs published in recent years, few cover recent progress in magnetospheric physics in broad areas of research. While a topical focus is important to in-depth views at a problem, a broad overview of our field is also needed. The volume answers to the latter need. With the collection of articles written by leading scientists, the contributions contained in the book describe latest research results in solar wind-magnetosphere interaction, magnetospheric substorms, magnetosphere-ionosphere coupling, transport phenomena in the plasma sheet, wave and particle dynamics in the ring current and radiation belts, and extra-terrestrial magnetospheric systems. In addition to its breadth and timeliness, the book highlights innovative methods and techniques to study the geospace.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The present review book by Prof., Dr. Lev I. Dorman, Plasmas and Energetic Processes in Geomagnetosphere reflects the development of the geomagnetospheres research and applications for the last few decades. The importance and actuality of geomagnetosphere research are based on the following three factors: 1. The geomagnetosphere is the nearest giant natural laboratory, where it is possible via satellites and ground measurements to investigate in detail many different plasmas and energetic processes in space, which are caused by an interaction of high kinetic energy solar wind plasmas and its perturbations (Interplanetary Coronal Mass Ejections - ICMEs, Interplanetary Shock Waves ISWs, Interplanetary Interaction Regions IIR), including those frozen in the Interplanetary Magnetic Fields (IMF) with the rotated main geomagnetic field. This interaction leads to the dynamic transformation of magnetic fields in the geomagnetosphere, generation and trapping of high energy particles (which are known as Magnetospheric Cosmic Rays MCR), and the generation of many types of instabilities and electromagnetic radiations. These processes are in principle similar to processes in magnetospheres of other planets and their moons, in the atmosphere of the sun and other stars, in interplanetary and in interstellar space, and in many different astrophysical objects. This research is an important basis for fundamental space and astrophysical science. 2. Today, technology, economics, navigation, TV, Internet, radio connections, military aspects, and the life of people on our planet are strongly connected to the work of many satellites moving inside the geomagnetosphere. Different processes and MCR in the geomagnetosphere influence the satellites work and often lead to satellite malfunctions up to fully destroying their electronics; satellites essentially die in these cases. The described research can be considered as a basis for developing methods of forecasting dangerous situations for satellites in different orbits and to decrease the risk of satellite malfunctions and loss. 3. The interaction of ICME, ISW, and IIR with the geomagnetosphere leads to the generation of big magnetic storms accompanied with a Forbush decrease and precursory effects in Galactic Cosmic Ray (GCR) intensity. These magnetic storms are dangerous not only to satellites, but also to the Earths surface in terms of technology, radio connections, car accidents, and human health (e.g., increasing the frequency of infarct myocardial and brain strokes). Investigations of causes of magnetic storms can help to develop methods of forecasting and decreasing the level of magnetic storm hazards. Therefore, the other practical application of this research is connected with the problem of space weather and space climate influence on the technology, radio connections, navigation, transportation, and peoples health on the Earth, which is independent of altitude and geomagnetic latitude.

Download or read book Communications Magnetospheric Substorms written by R. L. McPherron and published by . This book was released on 1983 with total page 46 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The primary activity of the U. of C.'s Space Science Group is the study of magnetic field measurements made by fluxgate magnetometers on spacecraft in the magnetosphere, in the solar wind and in space around other planets. Topics include: the solar wind and its internal structure; the solar wind interaction with planetary bodies; structure and dynamics of planetary magnetic fields; quantitative models of planetary fields and current systems; origins of magnetic activity; sources and properties of Ultra Low Frequency Waves; and effects of tectonic stress on rock magnetism. The faculty and research staff Group have collectively published more than 400 papers during 15 years of active involvement in the space program. ONR sponsored research has covered several subtopics within the general area of solar-terrestrial physics. These include: solar wind controlled dayside magnetic pulsations; substorm associated magnetic pulsations; magnetic storms, and magnetospheric substorms. The primary goal of this research is to understand the sequence of physical processes through which energy is transferred from the solar wind to the magnetosphere, and ultimately to the earth's atmosphere. One approach is the study of magnetic perturbations, within the magnetosphere and on the ground, caused by changes in the solar wind.

Download or read book Exploring the Solar Wind written by Marian Lazar and published by BoD – Books on Demand. This book was released on 2012-03-21 with total page 475 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This book consists of a selection of original papers of the leading scientists in the fields of Space and Planetary Physics, Solar and Space Plasma Physics with important contributions to the theory, modeling and experimental techniques of the solar wind exploration. Its purpose is to provide the means for interested readers to become familiar with the current knowledge of the solar wind formation and elemental composition, the interplanetary dynamical evolution and acceleration of the charged plasma particles, and the guiding magnetic field that connects to the magnetospheric field lines and adjusts the effects of the solar wind on Earth. I am convinced that most of the research scientists actively working in these fields will find in this book many new and interesting ideas.

Download or read book On the Stability of the Boundary of the Geomagnetic Field written by John R. Spreiter and published by . This book was released on 1965 with total page 36 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The response of the magnetosphere boundary in a steady solar wind to small initial departures from equilibrium is investigated in accordance with the classical model of Chapman and Ferraro. If the wavelength and amplitude are sufficiently small that curvature and second-order effects can be disregarded, all perturbations, except those having wave fronts aligned with the direction of the local magnetic field, are found to damp exponentially with time and to drift along the boundary with the tangential component of the solar wind. Aligned waves, which neither damp nor amplify in this approximation, are examined further by inclusion of curvature and higher order effects. A first-order analysis shows that curvature introduces a destabilizing effect in small regions in the vicinity of the neutral points and a stabilizing effect elsewhere. Possible geophysical consequences, such as the persistent magnetic agitation of the polar regions, are discussed. An exact solution for an aligned cylindrical solitary wave having an initial form of a circular arc is also presented to illustrate a mode of response that appears to permit injection of elongated and widely separated columns of solar wind plasma into the magnetosphere under certain conditions and to provide a mechanism for momentum transfer from the solar wind to the ambient magnetosphere plasma.

This book was released on 2004-06-06 with total page 100 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Solar and space physics is the study of solar system phenomena that occur in the plasma state. Examples include sunspots, the solar wind, planetary magnetospheres, radiation belts, and the aurora. While each is a distinct phenomenon, there are commonalities among them. To help define and systematize these universal aspects of the field of space physics, the National Research Council was asked by NASA's Office of Space Science to provide a scientific assessment and strategy for the study of magnetized plasmas in the solar system. This report presents that assessment. It covers a number of important research goals for solar and space physics. The report is complementary to the NRC report, The Sun to the Earthâ€"and Beyond: A Decadal Research Strategy for Solar and Space Physics, which presents priorities and strategies for future program activities.
