Описание
This timely volume provides the first comprehensive review and synthesis of current understanding of magnetic fields in the Sun and similar stars. It combines studies of the Sun with those of other stars to arrive at a illuminating new view of stellar magnetic activity as a whole. Key topics include radiative transfer, convective simulations, dynamo theory, outer-atmospheric heating, stell ar winds and angular momentum loss. Researchers are provided with a state-of-the-art review of this exciting field, and the pedagogical style and introductory material make the book an ideal and welcome introduction for graduate students.
