Magnetized plasmas in the universe exhibit complex dynamical
behavior over a huge range of scales. The fundamental mechanisms of
energy transport, redistribution and conversion occur at multiple
scales. The driving mechanisms often include energy accumulation,
free-energy-excited relaxation processes, dissipation and
self-organization. The plasma processes associated with energy
conversion, transport and self-organization, such as magnetic
reconnection, instabilities, linear and nonlinear waves,
wave-particle interactions, dynamo processes, turbulence, heating,
diffusion and convection represent fundamental physical effects.
They demonstrate similar dynamical behavior in near-Earth space, on
the Sun, in the heliosphere and in astrophysical environments.
'Multi-scale Dynamical Processes in Space and Astrophysical
Plasmas' presents the proceedings of the International Astrophysics
Forum Alpbach 2011. The contributions discuss the latest advances
in the exploration of dynamical behavior in space plasmas
environments, including comprehensive approaches to theoretical,
experimental and numerical aspects. The book will appeal to
researchers and students in the fields of physics, space and
astrophysics, solar physics, geophysics and planetary science.
