Heliophysics : space storms and radiation : causes and effects
Abstract
Heliophysics is a fast-developing scientific discipline that integrates studies of theSun's variability, the surrounding heliosphere, and the environment and climate
of planets. Over the past few centuries, our understanding of how the Sun drives
space weather and climate on the Earth and other planets has advanced at an ever
increasing rate. [...] The Sun is a magnetically variable star and, for planets with intrin¬
sic magnetic fields, planets with atmospheres, or planets like Earth with both, there
are profound consequences. This volume, the second in a series of three heliophysics texts, integrates the many aspects of space storms and the energetic radiation associated with
them -from their causes on the Sun to their effects in planetary environ¬
ments. It reviews the physical processes in solar flares and coronal mass ejec¬
tions, interplanetary shocks, and particle acceleration and transport, and considers
many of the space weather responses in geospace. Historical space weather
observations, in-situ particle measurement techniques, radiative emissions from
energetic particles, and impacts of space weather on people and technology in
space are also reviewed. In addition to its utility as a textbook, it also con¬
stitutes a foundational reference for researchers in the fields of heliophysics,
astrophysics, plasma physics, space physics, solar physics, aeronomy, space
weather, planetary science, and climate science.
