Book MHD Waves in the Solar Atmosphere

Download or read book MHD Waves in the Solar Atmosphere written by Bernard Roberts and published by Cambridge University Press. This book was released on 2019-07-18 with total page 529 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This volume presents a full mathematical exposition of the growing field of coronal seismology which will prove invaluable for graduate students and researchers alike. Roberts' detailed and original research draws upon the principles of fluid mechanics and electromagnetism, as well as observations from the TRACE and SDO spacecraft and key results in solar wave theory. The unique challenges posed by the extreme conditions of the Sun's atmosphere, which often frustrate attempts to develop a comprehensive theory, are tackled with rigour and precision; complex models of sunspots, coronal loops and prominences are presented, based on a magnetohydrodynamic (MHD) view of the solar atmosphere, and making use of Faraday's concept of magnetic flux tubes to analyse oscillatory phenomena. The rapid rate of progress in coronal seismology makes this essential reading for those hoping to gain a deeper understanding of the field.

Book Low Frequency Waves in Space Plasmas

Download or read book Low Frequency Waves in Space Plasmas written by Andreas Keiling and published by John Wiley & Sons. This book was released on 2016-04-04 with total page 524 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Low-frequency waves in space plasmas have been studied for several decades, and our knowledge gain has been incremental with several paradigm-changing leaps forward. In our solar system, such waves occur in the ionospheres and magnetospheres of planets, and around our Moon. They occur in the solar wind, and more recently, they have been confirmed in the Sun’s atmosphere as well. The goal of wave research is to understand their generation, their propagation, and their interaction with the surrounding plasma. Low-frequency Waves in Space Plasmas presents a concise and authoritative up-to-date look on where wave research stands: What have we learned in the last decade? What are unanswered questions? While in the past waves in different astrophysical plasmas have been largely treated in separate books, the unique feature of this monograph is that it covers waves in many plasma regions, including: Waves in geospace, including ionosphere and magnetosphere Waves in planetary magnetospheres Waves at the Moon Waves in the solar wind Waves in the solar atmosphere Because of the breadth of topics covered, this volume should appeal to a broad community of space scientists and students, and it should also be of interest to astronomers/astrophysicists who are studying space plasmas beyond our Solar System.

Book Coupling of the Solar Atmosphere Through MHD Waves

Download or read book Coupling of the Solar Atmosphere Through MHD Waves written by Aishawnnya Sharma and published by A.K. Publications. This book was released on 2022-12-22 with total page 0 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: From the dawn of human civilisations, Sun has played a crucial role in the wonderland of the human mind. It has been perceived as a powerful deity in the mythology of many civilisations because of its role in providing the life on Earth. Today, we know that it is an ordinary star, which is centred at our solar system. It bears more than 99% mass of the solar system and holds all the planets in the solar system together by its gravity. The Sun has formed 4.5 billion years ago from the collapse of a giant, rotating cloud of gas and dust, called the solar nebula. It is a Population I star that is rich in heavy elements, and formed from the remnants of the supernova explosion of a previous giant star. It is primarily composed of hydrogen (73%) and helium (25%) with a negligible amount of heavier elements such as oxygen, carbon, neon, silicon, magnesium and iron. The Sun is a main-sequence star with a spectral class of G2V. It is located at a distance of 1.496× 108 km (1 AU) from the Earth and has a radius of 696,342 ± 65 km, which is about 109 times the radius of the Earth. The mass of Sun is 1.9885 × 1030 kg, and its luminosity is 3.86 × 1026 W. The solar spectrum can be approximated by blackbody radiation with a temperature of 5785 K, that corresponds to the effective surface temperature of the Sun . The study of the Sun can be divided into two parts. The solar interior that is composed of the core, the radiative zone and the convective zone, and the solar atmosphere that includes the photosphere, the chromosphere, the transition region and the corona. Solar interior is primarily divided into three main regions based on energy generation and transfer processes. They are - the core, the radiative & the convective zone.

Book Advances in Solar System Magnetohydrodynamics

Download or read book Advances in Solar System Magnetohydrodynamics written by Eric Ronald Priest and published by Cambridge University Press. This book was released on 1991-06-28 with total page 460 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Most of the solar system is in the plasma state and its subtle non-linear interaction with the magnetic field is described for many purposes by the equations of magnetohydrodynamics (MHD). Over the past few years this important and complex field has become one of the most actively pursued areas of research, with increasingly diverse applications in geophysics, space physics and astrophysics. This book examines the basic MHD topics, such as equilibria, waves, instabilities and reconnection and examines each in the context of different areas that utilize MHD. Many of the world's leading experts have contributed to this volume, which has been edited by two of the key enthusiasts. It is hoped that it can help the reader to appreciate and understand the common threads between the different branches of magnetohydrodynamics. This book will be a timely exposition of recent advances made in the field.

Book Kelvin helmholtz Instability In Solar Atmospheric Jets

Download or read book Kelvin helmholtz Instability In Solar Atmospheric Jets written by Ivan Zhelyazkov and published by World Scientific. This book was released on 2020-11-17 with total page 255 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The book provides a comprehensive overview of the eruptive and wave phenomena in the solar atmosphere. One of the ongoing problems in solar physics is the heating of the solar corona. Currently there is a competition between two mechanisms in explaining the heating, i.e., dissipation of energy by waves and small scale frequent coronal magnetic reconnection. However, some studies indicate this may be a joint effect of these two possible mechanisms. Kelvin-Helmholtz Instability (KHI) of propagating magnetohydrodynamic modes in solar flowing structures plays an important role in the solar atmosphere. It can trigger the onset of wave turbulence leading to effective plasma heating and particle acceleration. KHI is a multifaceted phenomenon and the purpose of this book is to illuminate its (instability) manifestation in various solar jets like spicules, dark mottles, surges, macrospicules, Extreme Ultraviolet (EUV) and X-ray jets, as well as rotating, tornado-like, jets, solar wind, and coronal mass ejections.The modeling of KHI is performed in the framework of ideal magnetohydrodynamics. The book consists of 12 chapters and is intended primarily for advanced undergraduate and postgraduate students, as well as early career researchers.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This volume, together with its two companion volumes, originated in a study commis sioned by the United States National Academy of Sciences on behalf of the National Aeronautics and Space Administration. A committee composed of Tom Holzer, Dimitri Mihalas, Roger Ulrich and myself was asked to prepare a comprehensive review of current knowledge concerning the physics of the sun. We were fortunate in being able to persuade many distinguished scientists to gather their forces for the preparation of 21 separate chapters covering not only. solar physics but also relevant areas of astrophysics and solar-terrestrial relations. In proved necessary to divide the chapters into three separate volumes that cover three different aspects of solar physics. Volumes I and III are concerned with "The Solar Interior" and with "Astrophysics and Solar-Terrestrial Relations." This volume, devoted to "The Solar Atmosphere," covers not only the chromosphere and corona but also the principal phenomena usually referred to as "solar activity." The emphasis is on identifying and analyzing the relevant physical processes, but each chapter also contains a great deal of descriptive material.

Book Solar Magnetohydrodynamics

Download or read book Solar Magnetohydrodynamics written by E.R. Priest and published by Springer. This book was released on 1984-07-31 with total page 469 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: I have felt the need for a book on the theory of solar magnetic fields for some time now. Most books about the Sun are written by observers or by theorists from other branches of solar physics, whereas those on magnetohydrodynamics do not deal extensively with solar applications. I had thought of waiting a few decades before attempting to put pen to paper, but one summer Josip Kleczek encouraged an im mediate start 'while your ideas are still fresh'. The book grew out of a postgraduate lecture course at St Andrews, and the resulting period of gestation or 'being with monograph' has lasted several years. The Sun is an amazing object, which has continued to reveal completely unexpected features when observed in greater detail or at new wavelengths. What riches would be in store for us if we could view other stars with as much precision! Stellar physics itself is benefiting greatly from solar discoveries, but, in tum, our understanding of many solar phenomena (such as sunspots, sunspot cycles, the corona and the solar wind) will undoubtedly increase in the future due to their observation under different conditions in other stars. In the 'old days' the solar atmosphere was regarded as a static, plane-parallel structure, heated by the dissipation of sound waves and with its upper layer expanding in a spherically symmetric manner as the solar wind. Outside of sunspots the magnetic field was thOUght to be unimportant with a weak uniform value of a few gauss.
