Origins of Magnetospheric Physics

✍ James A. Van Allen 📂 Library 📅 2004 🏛 University Of Iowa Press 🌐 English

Early in 1958, instruments on the space satellites Explorer I and Explorer III revealed the presence of radiation belts, enormous populations of energetic particles trapped in the magnetic field of the earth. Originally published in 1983 but long out of print, "Origins of Magnetospheric Physics" tel

✍ Syun-Ichi Akasofu (auth.) 📂 Library 📅 1977 🏛 Springer Netherlands 🌐 English

<p>Man, through intensive observations of natural phenomena, has learned about some of the basic principles which govern nature. The aurora is one of the most fascinating of these natural phenomena, and by studying it, man has just begun to comprehend auroral phenomena in terms of basic cosmic elect

✍ A. V. Gurevich, V. S. Beskin, Ya. N Istomin 📂 Library 📅 2006 🏛 Cambridge University Press 🌐 English

This book presents the theory of the electrodynamic phenomena that occur in the magnetosphere of a pulsar. It also provides a clear picture of the formation and evolution of neutron stars. The authors address the basic physical processes of electron-positron plasma production, the generation of elec

✍ A. J. Dessler 📂 Library 📅 1983 🏛 CUP 🌐 English

Jupiter's magnetosphere (the region of space in which Jupiter's magnetic field influences the motion of charged particles) is the largest object in the solar system; it exhibits new phenomena and behaves, in some respects, like a pulsar. It is a magnetosphere whose physics is dominated by internal s
