Basic Space Plasma Physics (Revised Edition) - Baumjohann, Wolfgang (Austrian Academy Of Sci, Austria) a Treumann, Rudolf A (Munich Univ, Germany)

Deals with the requirements of space physics. This title describes the Earth's plasma environment, followed by a derivation of single particle motions in electromagnetic fields, with applications to the Earth's magnetosphere. It discusses the origin and effects of collisions and conductivities and solar wind-magnetosphere coupling.
