The Sun's magnetic box is answerable for the spectacularly dynamic and complex phenomenon that we name the corona. The earlier decade has noticeable an important elevate in our realizing of this a part of the sunlight outer surroundings, either due to observations and thanks to swift advances in numerical stories. The YOHKOH satellite tv for pc has saw the solar now for over six years, generating impressive sequences of pictures that express the complexity of the corona. The imaging and spectroscopic tools on SOHO have extra info at the cooler a part of the corona. and because April of 1998 hint has given us very excessive solution photographs of the 1-2 MK corona, at cadences that permit designated observations of box oscillations, loop evolution, mass ejecta, and so on.
This quantity comprises papers contributed to a workshop (held in August 1999 in Monterey, California) that was once devoted to an exploration of the newest effects at the sunlight corona, in addition to at the transition area and coffee sunlight wind. the various shows on the assembly revolved round one key subject: the whole outer surroundings of the solar is intrinsically dynamic, evolving so quickly that even the concept that of a unmarried neighborhood temperature for a unmarried fluid usually breaks down. furthermore, the corona is an intrinsically nonlinear and nonlocal medium. those elements are mentioned in those lawsuits that come with either papers that overview fresh advancements (both in keeping with observations and on theoretical/numerical modeling), and unique study papers in response to observations from many alternative observatories.
The papers offered on the assembly upload as much as this kind of quantity that they're disbursed over Topical problems with sun Physics (December 1999 and April 2000), that are reprinted in those certain volumes, of which this is often the second one.

Econophysics of Markets and Business Networks
Econophysicists have lately been really profitable in modelling and analysing numerous monetary structures like buying and selling, banking, inventory and different markets. The statistical behaviour of the underlying networks in those platforms have additionally been pointed out and characterized lately. This booklet stories the present econophysics researches within the constitution and functioning of those complicated monetary community platforms.

Example text
By far the most common intensity features are loops. It is reasonable to expect that these loops trace the local magnetic field, since mass and thermal energy can flow easily along magnetic field lines but not across them. , 1975; Jiao, McClymont, and Mikic, 1997). It is often instructive to think of the coronal magnetic field as a collection of rigid, thermally insulated conduits, each containing its own 'mini atmosphere ' . Because parallel thermal conduction is so efficient and because the gravitational scale height is so large, plasma parameters such as temperature and density tend to be uniform along field lines.
