The course is intended to provide an introduction to the field of
solar-terrestrial physics to new PPARC postgraduate students (and others)
starting work in the fields of solar physics, the solar corona and solar
wind, magnetospheric physics and the physics of the upper atmosphere of the
Earth. It covers the physics of the solar interior, the solar atmosphere
(including the corona and solar wind) and the interactions of solar
particles, magnetic fields and radiation with the magnetic field and
atmosphere of the Earth. The intention is to provide students with an
overview of the whole coupled Sun-Earth system.
