Description
The basic concepts of movement of electrically conducting layers in a magnetic field are described and the cosmic and earthly aspects of magnetohydrodynamics are presented. Important problems like self-exciting fields in cosmic objects, magnetohydrodynamic waves, and behavior of plasma are discussed. Applications of magnetohydrodynamics in industrial and laboratory scales are considered including pumping of metals, magnetic liquids, and MHD energetics
