商品描述

Magnetic fields permeate space and affect many major astrophysical phenomena, but they are often ignored due to their perceived complexity. This self-contained introduction to astrophysical magnetic fields provides both a comprehensive review of the current state of the subject and a critical discussion of the latest research. It presents our knowledge of magnetic fields from the Early Universe, their evolution in cosmic time through to their roles in present-day galaxies, galaxy clusters and the wider intergalactic medium, with attention given to both theory and observations. This volume also contains an extensive introduction into magnetohydrodynamics, numerous worked examples, observational and mathematical techniques and interpretations of the observations. Its review of our current knowledge, with an emphasis on results that are likely to form the basis for future progress, benefits a broad audience of advanced students and active researchers, including those from fields such as cosmology and general relativity.

商品描述(中文翻譯)

磁場貫穿空間並影響許多主要的天體物理現象，但由於其被認為複雜，常常被忽視。本書是對天體物理磁場的自成一體的介紹，提供了該主題當前狀態的全面回顧以及對最新研究的批判性討論。它展示了我們對早期宇宙中磁場的知識，磁場在宇宙時間中的演變，以及它們在當今星系、星系團和更廣泛的星際介質中的角色，並關注理論與觀測的結合。本書還包含了對磁流體動力學的廣泛介紹，眾多的實例，觀測和數學技術以及對觀測結果的詮釋。對我們當前知識的回顧，強調了可能成為未來進展基礎的結果，對於包括宇宙學和廣義相對論等領域的高級學生和活躍研究人員都有益。
