FM -- Ideal MHD Instabilities, with a Focus on the Rayleigh-Taylor and Kelvin-Helmholtz Instabilities -- The Tearing Instability of Resistive Magnetohydrodynamics -- Multi-Fluid Extensions of MHD and Their Implications on Waves and Instabilities -- Magnetohydrodynamic Relaxation Theory -- Using Magnetic Helicity, Topology, and Geometry to Investigate Complex Magnetic Fields -- Turbulence, Transport and Reconnection.
The book presents an advanced but accessible overview of some of the most important sub-branches of magnetohydrodynamics (MHD): stability theory, magnetic topology, relaxation theory and magnetic reconnection. Although each of these subjects is often treated separately, in practical MHD applications they are normally inseparable. MHD is a highly active field of research. The book is written for advanced undergraduates, postgraduates and researchers working on MHD-related research in plasma physics and fluid dynamics. .
