Solar and stellar dynamos : Saas-Fee Advanced Course 39 Swiss Society for Astrophysics and Astronomy

Astrophysical dynamos are at the heart of cosmic magnetic fields of a wide range of scales, from planets and stars to entire galaxies. This book presents a thorough, step-by-step introduction to solar and stellar dynamos. Looking first at the ultimate origin of cosmic seed magnetic fields, the antag...
