1. Mathematical Aspects of Natural Dynamos

   Edited by Emmanuel Dormy, Andrew M. Soward

   Series: The Fluid Mechanics of Astrophysics and Geophysics

   Although the origin of Earth's and other celestial bodies' magnetic fields remains unknown, we do know that the motion of electrically conducting fluids generates and maintains these fields, forming the basis of magnetohydrodynamics (MHD) and, to a larger extent, dynamo theory. Answering the need...

2. Fluid Dynamics and Dynamos in Astrophysics and Geophysics

   Edited by Andrew M. Soward, Christopher A. Jones, David W. Hughes, Nigel O. Weiss

   Series: The Fluid Mechanics of Astrophysics and Geophysics

   The increasing power of computer resources along with great improvements in observational data in recent years have led to some remarkable and rapid advances in astrophysical fluid dynamics. The subject spans three distinct but overlapping communities whose interests focus on (1) accretion discs...
