This§book offers eleven coordinated reviews on multi-scale§structure formation in cosmic plasmas in the Universe. Observations and theory of plasma structures are presented§in all relevant astrophysical contexts, from the Earth's magnetosphere through heliospheric and galactic scales to clusters of galaxies and the large scale§structure of the Universe. Basic processes in cosmic plasmas starting from§electric currents and the helicity concept§governing the dynamics of magnetic structures in planet magnetospheres,§stellar winds, and relativistic plasma outflows like pulsar wind nebulae and§Active Galactic Nuclei jets are covered.§§The§multi-wavelength view from the radio to gamma-rays with modern high resolution§telescopes discussed in the book reveals a beautiful and highly informative§picture of both coherent and chaotic plasma structures tightly connected by§strong mutual influence. The authors are all leading scientists in their§fields, making this book an authoritative, up_to_date and enduring contribution§to astrophysics.§
