Book Description
This book presents the current theoretical state of knowledge of Alfven waves, the basic low frequency mode of transport of information and energy in magenetized plasmas. Links to experimental and observational evidence for the waves are given. The scope covers Alfven waves in laboratory, space and astrophysical plasmas, and emphasizes the effects of the realistic, non-ideal physics of such plasmas on the properties of the waves.
