内容説明
The symposium on which this book is based consisted of 75 invited and contributed presentations about controversial and poorly understood phenomena related to the plasma environments of comets, weakly magnetised and non-magnetised solar system bodies with significant atmospheres. Understanding of the major physical and chemical processes controlling cometary plasma environments has greatly improved following the historic spacecraft encounters with comets Halley and Giacobini-Zinner. Pioneer Venus has provided detailed information about the plasma environment of Venus over a full solar cycle. The Phobos mission has also significantly enhanced our understanding of the Martian magnetosphere and its solar wind interaction. There is renewed interest in the solar wind interaction with our Moon and efforts are continuing toward further exploration of the plasma environments of Io, Titan and Triton. Although these bodies have vastly different plasma environments, there are several common physical processes which play important roles in the vicinity of most of the non-magnetic bodies.
These processes include mass loading and ton pickup, wave generation by pickup ring-beams, the evolution of velocity space distributions, particle acceleration, the formation of diamagnetic cavities and plasma-solid surface interactions. This volume contains a selection of the presentations and represents the state-of-the-art in the comprehension of plasma environments. It is aimed at astronomers, astrophysicists and atmospheric physicists.
