The Sun continually ejects matter into space, blowing a huge bubble
of supersonic plasma. This solar wind bathes the whole solar system
and shapes all planetary environments. The growth of space
technology has considerably increased our knowledge of this medium.
This 2007 book presents an introduction to the subject, starting
with basic principles and including all the latest advances from
space exploration and theory. It contains a short introduction to
plasma physics and discusses the structure of the solar interior
and atmosphere, the production of solar wind and its perturbations.
It explains the objects of the Solar System, from dust to comets
and planets, and their interaction with the solar wind. The final
sections explore the astrophysical point of view. The topics are
treated at various levels of difficulty both qualitatively and
quantitatively. This book will appeal to graduate students and
researchers in earth and atmospheric sciences, and astrophysics.
