Observations and theories of plasma structures are presentedin all relevant astrophysical contexts, from the Earth's magnetosphere through heliospheric and galactic scales to clusters of galaxies and the large scalestructure of the Universe. Basic processes in cosmic plasmas starting fromelectric currents and the helicity conceptgoverning the dynamics of magnetic structures in planet magnetospheres,stellar winds, and relativistic plasma outflows like pulsar wind nebulae andActive Galactic Nuclei jets are covered. Themulti-wavelength view from the radio to gamma-rays with modern high resolutiontelescopes discussed in the book reveals a beautiful and highly informativepicture of both coherent and chaotic plasma structures tightly connected bystrong mutual influence. The authors are all leading scientists in theirfields, making this book an authoritative, up-to-date and enduring contributionto astrophysics.

Jonathan Eastwood is a lecturer in the Department of Physics at Imperial College London where he is a member of the Space and Atmospheric Physics research group. He has previously worked at UC Berkeley and NASA Goddard Space Flight Center. In 2012 he was the recipient of the COSPAR Zeldovich medal (Commission D) in recognition of his research into the physics of magnetic reconnection and collisionless shocks using satellite data.
Jelle Kaastra (PhD 1985, Utrecht University) is a senior scientist at SRON, the Netherlands Institute for Space Research and professor of high-energy astrophysics at Leiden University. He is an expert on high-resolution X-ray spectroscopy of cosmic plasmas, and is currently principal investigator of the Reflection Grating Spectrometer on XMM-Newton and the Low-Energy Transmission Grating Spectrometer on Chandra. He has an active track record on clusters of galaxies, active galactic nuclei and X-ray models for cosmic plasmas.
