主　　题：Sun: activety   Magnetohydro dynamics   radiative transfer 

摘      要：This review of solar physics emphasizes several of the more conspicuous scientific puzzles posed by contemporary observational knowledge of the magnetic activity of the Sun. The puzzles emphasize how much classical physics we have yet to learn from the Sun. The physics of solar activity is based on the principles of Newton, Maxwell, Lorentz, Boltzmann, et. al., along with the principles of radiative transfer. In the large, these principles are expressed by magnetohydro dynamics. A brief derivation of the magnetohydrodynamic induction and moment um equations is provided, with a discussion of popular misconceptions.
