Magnetohydrodynamics : historical evolution and trends / Sergei S. Molokov, R. Moreau, H.K. Moffatt(eds.).
"Magnetohydrodynamics (MHD) studies the interaction between the flow of an electrically conducting fluid and magnetic fields. It involves such diverse topics as the evolution and dynamics of astrophysical objects, thermonuclear fusion, metallurgy and semiconductor crystal growth, etc. Although...
