Editorial Reviews
Book Description
Turbulence and convection are phenomena whose existence has long haunted astrophysicists because measuring them poses extremely difficult problems. This volume brings together representatives from four different viewpoints: computational physicists who do accurate and numerical three-dimensional large-eddy simulations; theorists, who wish to simplify the equations into approximate but useful one-dimensional recipes; astrophysicists, who would like to reduce turbulence and convection to a subroutine; and experimentalists, who provide valuable insights into what really happens at molecular levels in space -- and keep everyone else honest.
