Reviews

'The book is highly recommended to those students, post-docs, and researchers who are willing to go further into the fundamental understanding of wave phenomena in astrophysical plasmas than just to fit a sine function to the shaken loops after a banging solar flare.' Markus Aschwanden, The Observatory 'This volume presents a full mathematical exposition of the growing field of coronal seismology which will prove invaluable for graduate students and researchers alike ... I think this book would be suitable for a 'special topics' graduate course on MHD wave theory for those with a background in differential equations and special functions.'

Author Information

Bernard Roberts is Emeritus Professor of Solar Magnetohydrodynamics at the University of St Andrews. Scotland. His important contributions to the field over the past forty years have been recognised with an election to the Royal Society of Edinburgh in 1997, a Saltire Scottish Science Award in 1998, and, in 2010, the Royal Astronomical Society's prestigious Chapman Medal, awarded for 'investigations of outstanding merit in solar-terrestrial physics'.
