Book Description

Turbulence and convection are phenomena whose existence has long haunted astrophysicists because measuring them poses extremely difficult problems. This volume brings together representatives from four different viewpoints: computational physicists who do accurate and numerical three-dimensional large-eddy simulations; theorists, who wish to simplify the equations into approximate but useful one-dimensional recipes; astrophysicists, who would like to reduce turbulence and convection to a subroutine; and experimentalists, who provide valuable insights into what really happens at molecular levels in space -- and keep everyone else honest.
