โฆ Synopsis
This text for advanced undergraduate and first-year graduate students presents an introduction to plasma phenomena in solar and stellar coronae emphasizing non-MHD aspects. Topics include, for example, astrophysical electron beams, electrons trapped in magnetic fields, and collisionless shock waves. The volume is based upon the author's work teaching plasma astrophysics at the Swiss Federal Institute of Technology.
