Description:

Proceedings of the NATO Advanced Research Workshop on Coordinated Studies of the Solar Wind-Magnetosphere-Ionosphere Interaction: Interball in the ISTP Program, held in Kosice, Slovakia, 7-11 September, 1998

Synopsis:

This is an up-to-date progress report on the current status of solar-terrestrial relation studies with an emphasis on observations by the Russian Interball spacecraft and the Czech Magion subsatellites. Papers in the volume describe the various spacecraft in the International Solar-Terrestrial Program and the research questions that they are being used to address. The emphasis is on correlative studies employing multiple instruments and multiple spacecraft. The book begins with a description of each spacecraft active in 1998 and describes the roles they can play in correlative studies. This is followed by an up-to-date status report concerning ongoing studies of the solar wind, foreshock, bow shock, magnetopause, magnetotail, and ionosphere, with an emphasis on the observations made by the four Interball spacecraft. It is suitable for researchers and graduate students of space physics and astrophysics.
