Sommario/riassunto

Roubaix a attiré depuis des décennies de nombreux chercheurs de disciplines diverses (sociologues, économistes, historiens, géographes,



anthropologues…). Les caractéristiques peu communes de la ville, son histoire industrielle singulière, les transformations successives de son cadre urbain en font, à bien des égards, une ville laboratoire. Ces travaux restent souvent peu connus ou peu accessibles. L’ouvrage, issu d’un colloque organisé en novembre 2003, propose une synthèse de ces divers travaux, récents ou plus anciens, et trace de nouvelles pistes de réflexion sur la ville. Un retour sur les transformations de la ville depuis cinquante ans s’imposait alors que Roubaix est engagé dans une dynamique de renouvellement urbain qui ouvre de nouvelles perspectives pour l’avenir. L’ouvrage rassemble des contributions d’historiens, de géographes, de sociologues, de politistes mais aussi d’acteurs politiques et administratifs de la ville.

Sommario/riassunto

The magnetosphere is the region where cosmic rays & the solar wind interact with the Earth's magnetic field, creating such phenomena as the northern lights & other aurorae. The configuration & dynamics of the magnetosphere are of interest to planetary physicists, geophysicists, plasma astrophysicists, & to scientists planning space missions. The circulation of solar wind plasma in the magnetosphere & substorms have long been used as the principle paradigms for studying this vital region. The author here presents a synthesis of the convection & substorm literatures, & an analysis of convection & substorm interactions; he also suggests that the currently accepted steady reconnection model may be advantageously replaced by a model of multiple tail reconnection events, in which many mutually interdependent reconnections occur.
