Self-Organized Criticality in Astrophysics The Statistics of Nonlinear Processes in the Universe /

The concept of 'self-organized criticality' (SOC) has been applied to a variety of problems, ranging from population growth and traffic jams to earthquakes, landslides and forest fires. The technique is now being applied to a wide range of phenomena in astrophysics, such as planetary magne...
