Alfvén Waves Across Heliophysics: Progress, Challenges, and Opportunities

An interdisciplinary review of recent advances in Alfv n wave research

Alfv n waves are fundamental to the dynamics of space plasmas. Recent advances in our knowledge about Alfv n waves have come from several directions, including new space missions to unexplored heliospheric regions, sophisticated rocket campaigns in the auroral zone, enlarged magnetometer arrays and radar networks, and significant advances in computer modeling.

Alfv n Waves Across Heliophysics: Progress, Challenges, and Opportunities is an interdisciplinary collaboration from different space science communities to review recent and current Alfv n wave research.

Volume highlights include:

Alfv n waves in the solar atmosphere Alfv n waves at the giant planets Alfv n waves at Mars Alfv n waves in moon-magnetosphere systems Alfv n waves in geospace Alfv n waves in the laboratory
