Beschreibung
As in all other fields of astronomy, progress in instrumentation and observational techniques has in recent years brought a wealth of new information about the sun. This introduction presents a complete overview of solar physics, of what we know and would like to know. The increasing number of observations of solar pheno- mena on neighbouring stars makes this book valuable not only for students specializing in solar physics but also for researchers interested in stellar structure and the solar-stellar connection.
As in all other fields of astronomy, new observational techniques have yielded new results and also posed new questions. The Study Edition of this well-known book by M. Stix contains a complete survey of today's knowledge in solar physics and of the problems to be investigated.
