Synopsis
The authors explore the aspects of solar flares by understanding the underlying physical processes and in two parts: physics needed to understand this phenomena and the second for attacking different aspects of the phenomena. This important book is aimed primarily at beginning graduate students who have knowledge of basic physics., Few phenomena have stirred the imaginations of solar scientists as much as the explosive energy of solar flares. In The Physics of Solar Flares, first published in 1988, Einar Tandberg-Hanssen and A. Gordon Emslie approach this subject by drawing heavily on experimental data from the Solar Maximum Mission, as well as other ground-based and space-borne instruments. The data are incorporated into many theoretical investigations. The authors put the main emphasis on understanding the underlying physical processes. Starting from the language of physics, the authors guide the reader into the more specialised concepts of solar physics. The book is divided into two main parts: four chapters set the essentials of physics needed to attack the complexities of flare phenomena, and then a further four treat different aspects of the phenomena. This important book is aimed primarily at beginning graduate students who are assumed to have knowledge of basic physics.

- 9***9 (116)- Feedback left by buyer.Past monthVerified purchaseWell packaged, book arrived in great condition. According to the Tracking App it took 4-5 days for the book to be mailed. So shipping is slow. The Book itself was well written and factual. Though no fault of the Dealer the title of this book was misleading on that it is called, "Wakinyan" which is the name of the Thunder Bird. Unfortunately the book does not even mention the ThunderBirds on any page. I bought the book from the title since there was not any description of the books contents .
