Magnetic activity in the sun and similar stars results in a wealth
of phenomena--including starspots, nonradiatively heated outer
atmospheres, activity cycles, deceleration of rotation rates, and
even, in close binaries, stellar cannibalism. This volume uniquely
combines studies of the sun with those of other stars to provide a
comprehensive picture of stellar magnetic activity. Coverage brings
together recent results in solar and stellar studies to provide an
illuminating, new view of the subject. Key topics include radiative
transfer, convective simulations, dynamo theory, outer-atmospheric
heating, stellar winds and angular momentum loss. Researchers are
provided with a state-of-the-art review of this exciting field.
Graduate students in astrophysics and plasma physics will find the
volume an ideal introduction to the subject. The book will also
interest researchers studying the connection of solar Sctivity with
the Earth's climate change, such as geologists, planetary
scientists and atmospheric scientists.
