This is the first book to give a comprehensive overview of recent
observational and theoretical results on solar wind structures and
fluctuations and magnetohydrodynamic waves and turbulence,
preference being given to phenomena in the inner heliosphere.
Emphasis is placed on the progress made in the past decade in the
understanding of the nature and origin of especially small-scale,
compressible and incompressible fluctuations. Turbulence models
describing the spatial transport and spectral transfer of the
fluctuations in the inner heliosphere are discussed. Intermittency
of solar wind fluctuations and their statistical distributions are
investigated. Studies of the heating and acceleration effects of
the turbulence on the background wind are critically surveyed.
Finally, open questions concerning the origin, nature and evolution
of the fluctuations are listed, and perspectives for future
research are outlined. The book is for graduate students and
researchers in the field. Other target groups are scientists and
professionals interested in space plasma physics and/or MHD
turbulence.
