The last thirty years have seen great leaps forward in the subject
of magnetoconvection. Computational techniques can now explain
exotic nonlinear behaviour, transition to chaos and the formation
of structures that can be observed on the surface of the Sun. Here,
two leading experts present the current state of knowledge of the
subject. They provide a mathematical and numerical treatment of the
interactions between electrically conducting fluids and magnetic
fields that lead to the complex structures and rich behaviour
observed on the Sun and other stars, as well as in the interiors of
planets like the Earth. The authors' combined analytical and
computational approach provides a model for the study of a wide
range of related problems. The discussion includes bifurcation
theory, chaotic behaviour, pattern formation in two and three
dimensions, and applications to geomagnetism and to the properties
of sunspots and other features at the solar surface.
