Probing the Sun With High Resolution
Editorial Reviews
Book Description
This volume reviews the recent progress that has been made in solar physics with emphasis on ground based high resolution observations. This covers topics like helioseismology which is providing fundamental information about the solar interior, evolution of the magnetic structure from the photosphere to the corona; space weather and their geospace consequences and finally multi-frequency observations of the Sun. The style and level of the articles is suitable for both the beginners and matured researchers in the field of solar physics.
