Focusing on migrant children's educational choices in China, the book examines their academic performances and future opportunities through the lens of global insights and education supply and demand theory. It also analyzes the impact of educational fiscal policies, providing a comprehensive background and exploring potential solutions to enhance the educational landscape for these children.
Foundations of the Physics of Radiation Belts and Space Plasmas
This book is a new edition of Roederer’s classic Dynamics of Geomagnetically Trapped Radiation , updated and considerably expanded. The main objective is to describe the dynamic properties of magnetically trapped particles in planetary radiation belts and plasmas and explain the physical processes involved from the theoretical point of view. The approach is to examine in detail the orbital and adiabatic motion of individual particles in typical configurations of magnetic and electric fields in the magnetosphere and, from there, derive basic features of the particles’ collective “macroscopic” behavior in general planetary environments. Emphasis is not on the “what ” but on the “why ” of particle phenomena in near-earth space, providing a solid and clear understanding of the principal basic physical mechanisms and dynamic processes involved. The book will also serve as an introduction to general space plasma physics, with abundant basic examples to illustrate and explain the physical origin of different types of plasma current systems and their self-organizing character via the magnetic field. The ultimate aim is to help both graduate students and interested scientists to successfully face the theoretical and experimental challenges lying ahead in space physics in view of recent and upcoming satellite missions and an expected wealth of data on radiation belts and plasmas.
Exploring corporate governance in Chinese listed companies, this book begins with an overview of the Chinese stock market and a review of related literature. It empirically evaluates how governance mechanisms impact firm performance and addresses issues of information leakage within the market. Additionally, the author examines the influence of governance on these leakage problems and offers recommendations for the future enhancement of corporate governance practices in China.
