John Dyson has contributed to the study of the hydrodynamic
processes that govern a wide variety of astrophysical sources which
he has helped explain. In this volume dedicated to him,
introductory reviews to a number of the key processes and to the
sources themselves are given by leading experts. The book provides
a coherent introduction to the astrophysics of diffuse sources
suitable for postgraduate students and researchers in astrophysics.

processes that govern a wide variety of astrophysical sources which

introductory reviews to a number of the key processes and to the
sources themselves are given by leading experts. The mechanisms in
which the multi-component natures of media affect their dynamics
receive particular attention, but the roles of hydromagnetic
effects are also highlighted. The importance of cosmic ray
moderation and mass transfer between different thermal phases for
cosmic ray moderation and mass transfer between different thermal
phases for the evolution of flows are amongst the topics treated.
The main types of regions considered include those where starts
form, the circumstellar environments of evolved stars, the larger
scale interstellar structures caused by the mass loss of stars, and
those where the lines of AGNs form.
