Magnetohydrodynamic Processes in the Outer Heliosphere
Abstract
Contents: (1) Introduction. (2) Basic equations (dynamics, thermodynamics, electrodynamics, coordinates). (3) Large-scale variations (magnetic field strength, magnetic field direction, components of B, sectors, large-scale field strength fluctuations, shocks and interfaces). (4) Corotating configurations (corotating streams, filtering, pressure waves without fast streams, large-scale patterns). (5) Magnetic clouds (transients, nature of magnetic clouds, size, magnetic field configuration). (6) Stream interactions (classification, entrainment, twin streams, recurrent streams). (7) Flow systems and large-scale fluctuations (scales, corotating systems, transient and mixed systems, shells, stationary and homogeneity. (8) Radial evolution of large-scale fluctuations (velocity fluctuations, magnetic field strength fluctuations, filtering and entrainment, turbulence). (9) Discussion.
