Plasma physics of the sun  

Description

The students are being introduced to a few concrete applications of the plasma-astrophysics in the most nearby star: the sun. The students learn that the sun plays a key-roll in our insight in the physics of starts and other astrophyisical and laboratorium plasma. Magnetohydrodynamics as a mathematical model will be used to describe magnetical appearances in the outer layers of the sun and in the atmosphere of the sun. The students are presented with the possibility to apply a number of mathematical techniques in particular situations: eg; solve normal and partial hyperbolic differential equations, solve non-linear elliptic differential equations, complexe analysis, disruption analysis, …
