This textbook, derived from courses given by three leading
researchers, provides advanced undergraduates and graduates with
up-to-date coverage of space physics, from the Sun to the
interstellar medium. Clear explanations of the underlying physical
processes are presented alongside major new discoveries and
knowledge gained from space missions, ground-based observations,
theory, and modelling to inspire students. Building from the basics
to more complex ideas, the book contains enough material for a
two-semester course but the authors also provide suggestions for
how the material can be tailored to fit a single semester.
End-of-chapter problems reinforce concepts and include
computer-based exercises specially developed for this textbook
package. Free access to the software is available via the book's
website and enables students to model the behavior of
magnetospheric and solar plasma. An extensive glossary recaps new
terms and carefully selected further reading sections encourage
students to explore advanced topics of interest.
