Written by eminent scientists in solar physics, the chapters deal with recent advances in solar physics, seismic Sun, solar magnetic field, waves and oscillations, spectroscopic diagnostics of solar plasmas, partially ionized lower atmosphere, coronal heating, coronal mass ejections, radio Sun, solar wind, and the Sun-Earth system. Each chapter is fully illustrated and has a comprehensive reference list. The book covers all major topics in solar physics, and p 606 $aSolar activity$vCongresses 606 $aSolar atmosphere$vCongresses 607 $aSun$vCongresses 615 0$aSolar activity 615 0$aSolar atmosphere 676 $a523.7 701 $aDwivedi$b B.
