Commission H: Waves in Plasmas

Description

Commission H encompasses space and laboratory plasmas. The goals of the Commission are:

1. To study waves in plasmas in the broadest sense and, in particular:
   1. the generation (i.e., plasma instabilities) and propagation of waves in plasmas,
   2. the interaction between these waves, and wave-particle interactions,
   3. plasma turbulence processes and chaos,
   4. spacecraft-plasma interactions;
2. To encourage the application of the results of these studies, particularly in the areas of solar/planetary plasma interactions, and the increased exploitation of space as a research laboratory.
