โฆ Synopsis
At last the foundations of space plasma physics are presented both from the fundamental and theoretical viewpoints. Volume 1 - Stationary Processes is an introductory text of plasma physics relevant to the solar and terrestrial environment designed not only as a standard reference for scientists and students involved in space physics research but also as an introduction of space physics to laboratory and fusion plasma physicists. Main topics include: - elementary plasma physics, - small amplitude waves, and - the stationary plasma processes of solar wind, magnetospheric and ionospheric plasmas and the couplings among each other.

This book builds on the fluid and kinetic theory of equilibria and waves presented in a companion textbook, Basic Space Plasma Physics (by the same authors), but can also serve as a stand-alone text. It extends the field covered there into the domain of plasma instability and nonlinear theory. The b
