Klappentext zu „Magnetic Processes in Astrophysics “
In this work the authors draw upon their expertise in geophysical and astrophysical MHD to explore the motion of electrically conducting fluids, the so-called dynamo effect, and describe the similarities and differences between different magnetized objects. They also explain why magnetic fields are crucial to the formation of the stars, and discuss promising experiments currently being designed to investigate some of the relevant physics in the laboratory. This interdisciplinary approach will appeal to a wide audience in physics, astrophysics and geophysics. This second edition covers such additional topics as small-scale dynamos, while also presenting the latest results and experiments.

Autoren-Porträt von Günther Rüdiger, Rainer Hollerbach, Leonid L. Kitchatinov
Günther Rüdiger is Professor at the Leibniz Institute for Astrophysics Potsdam, and lectured at the University of Potsdam. He has also worked at the University of Göttingen and is a former Visiting Professor at the University of Newcastle upon Tyne. For the successfulcollaboration with the Helmholtz-Center Dresden-Rossendorf regarding the magnetorotational instability experiment PROMISE he was awarded the 2008 Science Prize of the Donor Federation of German Science. Rainer Hollerbach received his Ph.D. from the University of California, San Diego. He is currently Visiting Professor in the Institute of Geophysics at ETHZürich, as part of the European Research Council project ?Magnetostrophic Flow in Experiments and the Core of theEarth?. He is permanently based in the Department of Applied Mathematics at the University of Leeds, England. He is a Fellow of the American Geophysical Union and the UK Institute of Physics. Leonid L. Kitchatinov received his Ph.D. from the Ioffe Physical Technical Institute, St Petersburg. He is permanently affiliated to the Institute of Solar-Terrestrial Physics, Irkutsk, and to the PulkovoObservatory, St Petersburg. He has repeatedly worked at the Leibniz Institute for Astrophysics Potsdam, supported by both the Deutsche Forschungsgemeinschaftand by the Alexander von Humboldt Foundation as a Research Fellow for a year. He has also worked at theUniversity of St Andrews, UK.

Rezension zu „Magnetic Processes in Astrophysics “
Über das erste Buch des Autors zu diesem Thema "Magnetic Universe":"...kann ich das Werk allen astrophysikalisch oder geophysikalisch interessierten Physikern empfehlen."Physik Journal
Pressezitat
About the first book of the author on this topic:"Researchers and advanced students will greatly profit from this book." Rainer Beck, Max-Planck-Institut für Radioastronomie, Bonn"The authors do a good job of conveying the excitement of the subject and of bringing together much of the research of important topics, a welcome addition to the bookshelves." The Observatory"Ruediger and Hollerbach have brought together the significant research on this topic ... will be of interest to both the geophysicist and the astro-physicist, and perhaps the physicist or engineer ..."E-STREAMS"... does contain many deep insights and there is valuable material...that is not easily accessible elsewhere.." Geophysical and Astrophysical Fluid Dynamics"...a valuable book to have and study...an encyclopedic guide to some of the most interesting problems in astrophysics...should be savored over many sittings."Physics Today
