激波是太阳系等离子体的一个重要特征，从日冕到日光层边缘。这本引人入胜的介绍空间等离子体中的无碰撞激波，从基本原理到当前的研究，全面回顾了支配不同类型的冲击和粒子加速过程的物理学。在观测行星弓激波、行星际激波和太阳风终止激波的基础上，它强调了这些冲击波背后的物理理论。读者将加深对粒子动力学与电场和磁场之间复杂相互作用的理解，这解释了原位航天器的观测。这本最新的课本由该领域的知名专家撰写，对于刚接触日球层物理的研究生和希望将太阳系冲击的教训应用于不同天体物理环境的天体物理学研究人员来说，都是理想的伴侣。
Shock waves are an important feature of solar system plasmas, from the solar corona out to the edge of the heliosphere. This engaging introduction to collisionless shocks in space plasmas presents a comprehensive review of the physics governing different types of shocks and processes of particle acceleration, from fundamental principles to current research. Motivated by observations of planetary bow shocks, interplanetary shocks and the solar wind termination shock, it emphasises the physical theory underlying these shock waves. Readers will develop an understanding of the complex interplay between particle dynamics and the electric and magnetic fields that explains the observations of in situ spacecraft. Written by renowned experts in the field, this up-to-date text is the ideal companion for both graduate students new to heliospheric physics and researchers in astrophysics who wish to apply the lessons of solar system shocks to different astrophysical environments.
