Particle Astrophysics, including Neutrino and Dark-Matter Astrophysics today, started with the discovery of cosmic rays in 1911. The Space Age expanded particle observations to in-situ studies of lower energy electrons and ions with a variety of charge states in space plasmas traversed by spacecraft. Remote observation of space plasmas became possible only after the discovery of energetic neutral atoms (ENAs) in space in 1950./ppThis book is a primer for those who wish to learn more about the origins of ENAs, related detection techniques, and how ENA images and spectra can be used to study space plasmas beyond the reach of spacecraft. It tells a comprehensive story from the first encounters with ENAs in the Earths magnetosphere to Neutral-Atom Astronomy of the edge of the heliosphere and the interstellar medium. This story includes how ion mass spectrographs evolved into ENA imagers, overcoming the technical challenges, how to extract information from ENA data, and a variety of diagnostic applications on the magnetosphere, interplanetary space, other solar-system objects, the heliospheric boundary, the local interstellar medium, and a glimpse into the future of Neutral-Atom Astronomy./ppThe authors hope to inform and inspire readers to further enrich this field of study./ppstrongContents:/strong/pullipIntroduction/p/lilipFirst Encounters with ENAs/p/lilipRemote Sensing of Space Plasma Through ENA Observations/p/lilipENA Instrumentation: General/p/lilipENA Sensor Implementations/p/lilipENAs from Magnetospheres and Small Bodies in the Solar System/p/lilipENA Diagnostics of the Heliosphere-Interstellar Medium Interaction/p/lilipWhat Have ENAs Revealed and What is Next?/p/lilipemstrongAppendices:/strong/em/pulliGeometrical Factor and Angular Response/liliENA-Beam Calibration Facilities/li/ul/li/ulpstrongReadership:/strong Advanced undergraduate and graduate students, researchers and practitioners in the fields of heliospheric and planetary studies, researchers with topics related to space.br /strongKey Features:/strong/pulliThere is no competing title/liliCovers the field from inception to the state of the art/liliAlthough retired since 2011, co-author KCH pioneered the field since 1970s, for which he was elected Fellow of the American Physical Society in 2000.
