Conversations on Electric and Magnetic Fields in the Cosmos (Princeton Series in Astrophysics)

今天的標準教材是電磁場的理論結構，但它們的重點是電磁輻射，靜電場和磁場。在本書中，尤金派克為高級研究生和研究人員提供了對現有文本非常需要的補充，其中討論了宇宙的動態電磁學 。

帕克可以說是全球領先的太陽風權威機構，他的思想獨創性和獨特的物理學方法在這方面是非常有說服力的。派克讓讀者參與了一系列“傳說”，有時甚至是軼事。他描述的動力學代表了磁場的麥克斯韋應力，其特徵在於磁場和氣體速度。

宇宙中的電場和磁場的對話可以回溯到基礎，以解釋為什麼古典流體動力學和磁流體動力學是不可避免的，即使在最深的空間。

Today's standard textbooks treat the theoretical structure of electric and magnetic fields, but their emphasis is on electromagnetic radiation and static-electric and magnetic fields. In this book, Eugene Parker provides advanced graduate students and researchers with a much-needed complement to existing texts, one that discusses the dynamic electromagnetism of the cosmos--that is, the vast magnetic fields that are carried bodily in the swirling ionized gases of stars and galaxies and throughout intergalactic space.

Parker is arguably the world's leading authority on solar wind and the effects of magnetic fields in the heliosphere, and his originality of thought and distinctive approach to physics are very much in evidence here. Seeking to enrich discussions in standard texts and correct misconceptions about the dynamics of these large-scale fields, Parker engages readers in a series of "conversations" that are at times anecdotal and even entertaining without ever sacrificing theoretical rigor. The dynamics he describes represents the Maxwell stresses of the magnetic field working against the pressure and inertia of the bulk motion of ionized gases, characterized in terms of the magnetic field and gas velocity. Parker shows how this dynamic interaction cannot be fully expressed in terms of the electric current and electric field.

Conversations on Electric and Magnetic Fields in the Cosmos goes back to basics to explain why classical hydrodynamics and magnetohydrodynamics are inescapable, even in the deepest reaches of space.
