From page 106...
... Wave-Particle Interactions The important role of plasma waves in the macroscopic transfer of energy and momentum in space plasmas has become clear as a result of complementary and strongly coupled experimental and theoretical investigations. Over the last few decades, spacecraft observations have provided valuable information regarding the plasma environments around the Earth, planets, Sun, and comets.
