Description for Magnetic Reconnection
Paperback. Magnetic reconnection is a fundamental plasma-physical process which converts energy stored in magnetic fields into heat and kinetic energy. Here, researchers present the latest theoretical and observational results relating to central issues in the field. Editor(s): Antiochos, Spiro; Drake, James. Num Pages: 173 pages, biography. BIC Classification: PHFP; RB; TTDS. Category: (P) Professional & Vocational. Dimension: 235 x 155 x 13. Weight in Grams: 278.
This volume covers different aspects of recent theoretical and observational work on magnetic reconnection, a fundamental plasma-physical process by which energy stored in magnetic field is converted, often explosively, into heat and kinetic energy. This collection of papers from the fields of solar and space physics, astrophysics, and laboratory plasma physics is especially timely in view of NASA's upcoming Magnetospheric Multiscale mission, which will use Earth's magetosphere as a laboratory to test, through in-situ measurement of the plasma, energetic particles, and electric and magnetic fields, the various and sometimes competing models and theories of magnetic reconnection.
