Magnetohydrodynamic Processes in Solar Plasmas provides comprehensive and up-to-date theory and practice surrounding the fundamentals of heliospheric research and the Suns basic plasma processes, covering the dynamics of the solar interior to its exterior in the framework of magnetohydrodynamics. The book covers novel aspects of solar and heliospheric physics, astrophysics, space science, and fundamentals of the fluids and plasmas. Topics covered include key phenomena in the solar interior such as magnetism, dynamo physics, and helioseismology, dynamics and plasma processes in its exterior, including fluid processes such as waves, shocks, instabilities, reconnection, dynamics in the partially ionized plasma, and much more. The book covers both the fundamentals of the topics included as well as current and future developments in the field, forming an essential, foundational reference for researchers, academics, and advanced students, in the field of solar physics and astrophysics, as well as neighboring disciplines.

Abhishek Kumar Srivastava is a Professor of Physics at the Indian Institute of Technology (Banaras Hindu University), Varanasi, India. He works in the field of solar and heliospheric physics, and his research focuses on the study of magnetohydrodynamic waves, coronal heating, various solar eruptive phenomena and transients in the Sun's atmosphere. Marcel Goossens is professor emeritus in Applied Mathematics in the Centre of mathematical Plasma Astrophysics of the Department of Mathematics of the KU Leuven. His research spans more than five decades and has dealt with global stellar oscillations, magnetohydrodynamic waves and instabilities in solar and space plasmas, and magnetohydrodynamic seismology of the solar atmosphere. Ińigo Arregui is a physicist working as a staff researcher at the Instituto de Astrofķsica de Canarias. He completed a PhD in Physics at Universitat de les Illes Balears with a thesis on magnetohydrodynamic waves in the solar atmosphere. His research focuses on the interpretation and modelling of wave activity in the solar atmosphere, designing tools for remote diagnostics of solar atmospheric plasmas, and the study of wave-based plasma heating mechanisms.
