Solar-Terrestrial Relations
Springer International Publishing (Verlag)
978-3-031-22547-5 (ISBN)
The author provides state-of-the-art information about existing problems and discusses different channels for extraterrestrial influences at the up-to-date level: electromagnetic waves and fields, total solar irradiance, solar wind, energetic solar particles, galactic cosmic rays, cosmic dust, etc. Some of the well-known and suggested STR effects and corresponding physical mechanisms are illustrated by several examples. In particular, a number of different external "signals" in observed changes of terrestrial climate and weather are considered. Especially, an expected impact of geophysical disturbances on the accuracy of some precise physical measurements and experiments is analysed. Due attention is paid to the heliobiological aspects of STR. Particular emphasis is on the multifactor nature of magneto-biological effect (MBE), its non-stationary and non-linear behaviour. The author also discusses main features of different physical mechanisms (electromagnetic fields, ionising radiation, triggers, rhythmic and resonances in solar-terrestrial systems) and their applicability to the Sun-Earth problem. The most of them are still needed in more sophisticated theoretical development and experimental confirmation. The main goals of interdisciplinary studies in this field are to determine partial impacts of solar-geomagnetic variability on the terrestrial environments and estimate (separate) relative contributions of different factors into various STR phenomena.
The book is based on lectures given on advanced undergraduate leveland will also benefit newcomers (physicists and engineers) to the field.
Prof. Leonty Miroshnichenko obtained his scientific grade of Full Doctor in Physics and Mathematics in 1991 and is currently a professor at IZMIRAN and Chief Researcher in the Department of Solar Physics and Solar-Terrestrial Relations of IZMIRAN. His scientific interests are the Sun, solar flares, acceleration of solar cosmic rays; interplanetary space, heliosphere; solar-terrestrial relations, space weather, heliobiology. He has written approximately 250 publications, including 11 books on solar cosmic rays and solar-terrestrial relations. His previous Springer books are on Solar Cosmic Rays (2014) and Radiation Hazards in Space (2003).
