Space solar physics : theoretical and observational issues in the context of the SOHO mission : proceedings of a summer school, held in Orsay, France, 1-13 September 1997 /

This is a fair overview of the basic problems in Solar Physics. The authors address not only the physics that is well understood but also discuss many open questions. The lecturers' involvement in the SOHO mission guarantees a modern and up-to-date analysis of observational data and makes this...
