In the companion volume,Kinetic Alfvén Wave: Theory, Experiment, and Application, we have presented the systematic theories and basic principles of kinetic Alfvén waves (KAWs) based on both kinetic and fluid descriptions of magnetic plasmas. The present volume builds upon that and proceeds into the in-depth analyses and discussions of observation, generation, and application of KAWs in various plasma environments in the solar-terrestrial coupling system, which is a unique natural laboratory for the comprehensive and thorough study of KAWs. However, first of all, in this introductory chapter we concisely review main physical properties of KAWs without proving, which are from the companion volume and set up the basis for the following chapters.
