Klappentext
This book is about NASA's Interstellar Mapping and Acceleration Probe (IMAP), a pioneering mission designed to investigate how energetic particles are accelerated in space and how the solar wind interacts with the local interstellar medium. Building on the legacy of the IBEX mission, IMAP explores the heliosphere, the boundaries of our solar system, and the processes that shape our galactic environment through a coordinated suite of ten advanced instruments.
This volume brings together contributions from mission scientists and experts to present a comprehensive overview of IMAP's scientific goals, instrumentation, and mission design. The chapters describe the theoretical and observational foundations of heliospheric and interstellar research, while highlighting the key discoveries and open questions that define the field at the dawn of the IMAP era.
Serving both as a reference and an introduction to this new mission, the book is intended for researchers, graduate students, and advanced undergraduate students in space physics, heliophysics, astrophysics, planetary science, and related disciplines. A basic background in physics and astronomy will help readers fully benefit from the material.
