1 Introduction; 2 Large-Scale Magnetic Field; 3 Large-Scale Plasma; 4 Pressure Balanced Structures; 5 Shocks; 6 Magnetic Clouds and Force-Free Magnetic Fields; 7 Corotating Streams and Interaction Regions; 8 Merged Interaction Regions; 9 Large-Scale Fluctuations; 10 Heliospheric Vortex Street; References; Author Index; Subject Index.
Summary: Data from spacecraft such as Pioneer, Vela and Voyager have revealed the interstellar medium to be a remarkable physical system, which has served as a laboratory for the study of turbulent, supersonic, ideal magnetohydrodynamic (MHD) flows. The results of these studies provided confirmation of many theoretical models of the interstellar medium.
