Beschreibung:
The increasing power of computer resources along with great improvements in observational data in recent years have led to some remarkable and rapid advances in astrophysical fluid dynamics. The subject spans three distinct but overlapping communities whose interests focus on (1) accretion discs and high-energy astrophysics; (2) solar, stellar, and galactic magnetic fields; and (3) the geodynamo, planetary magnetic fields, and associated experiments. This book grew out of a special conference sponsored by the London Mathematical Society with the support of EPSRC that brought together leading researchers in all of these areas to exchange ideas and review the status of the field. The many interesting problems addressed in this volume concern:
Accretion Discs. Discs with Mhd Turbulence and Their Response to Orbiting Planets. Mixing at the Surface of White Dwarf Stars. Pulsar Magnetospheres. Magnetic Fields in Galaxies. Self-Consistent Mean Field Electrodynamics in Two and Three Dimensions. The Solar Tachocline: Formation, Stability and Its Role in the Solar Dynamo. Magnetoconvection. Alfvén Waves Within the Earth's Core. Turbulence Models and Plane Layer Dynamos. Planetary and Stellar Dynamos: Challenges for Next Generation Models. Convection in Rotating Spherical Fluid Shells and Its Dynamo States. Laboratory Experiments on Liquid Metal Dynamos and Liquid Metal Mhd Turbulence. Index.
