Based on lectures given at a CNRS summer school in France, this
book covers many aspects of stellar environments (both
observational and theoretical) and offers a broad overview of the
field. More specifically, Part I of the book focuses on the Sun,
the properties of the ejected plasma, of the solar wind and on
space weather. The second part deals with tides in planetary
systems and in binary stellar systems, as well as with interactions
in massive binary stars as seen by interferometry. Finally the
chapters of Part III discuss the very close environments of young
stars; Stellar Winds, Magnetic Fields and Disks; Magnetic field and
convection in the cool supergiant Betelgeuse; The formation of
circumstellar disks around evolved stars; and an introduction to
accretion disks is given. With its broad approach the book will
provide graduate students with a good overview of the environments
of the Sun and stars.
