THE SUN TODAY - CLAUDIO VITA-FINZI KARTONIERT (TB)

There are several billion stars in the Milky Way galaxy. One of them is the middle-aged G2V
yellow dwarf that rules our lives. The Sun Today discusses the Sun¿s appearance and composition
its internal workings  and the various kinds of radiation it emits  and it puts forward a novel
explanation for coronal heating. The book draws on the findings of telescopic observation 
space missions  and technical and theoretical advances in many fields  and shows why we need to
know more if we are to understand and manage our foothold in the Universe. From the reviews of
