[P-EM32_2PM1] Plasma Astrophysics: MHD phenomenon, magnetic reconnection, structure formation

Fri. May 2, 2014 2:15 PM - 4:00 PM 503 (5F)

Convener:*Shuichi Matsukiyo(Department of Earth System Science and Technology, Kyushu University), Shin-ya Nitta(National University Corporation Tsukuba University of Technology), Chair:Ryoji Matsumoto(Graduate School of Science, Chiba University)

MHD phenomena are characterized by large temporal and spatial scales in a plasma. In this session the phenomena widely related with MHD including, for instance, multi-scale physics in a magnetic reconnection, structure formation in a plasma are discussed. This session is a part of 'plasma astrophysics joint session of the three academic societies'.
