Nonlinear MHD waves and turbulence : proceedings of the workshop held in Nice, France, 1-4 December 1998 /
This book is of interest to researchers in astrophysics and the planetary sciences. It surveys the current knowledge on the propagation of nonlinear waves and the development of a turbulent dynamics in magnetohydrodynamic flows. The authors emphasize how the theoretical understanding of MHD waves an...
