The study of physical processes in space plasma is the basis for building models of astrophysical objects. Space gas dynamics is the mathematical basis for describing the processes of generation and transfer of radiation in space plasma, including non-thermal radiation of relativistic particles (cosmic rays). Based on the registration of electromagnetic, gravitational-wave and corpuscular (cosmic rays) radiation from astrophysical objects, the methods of space gas dynamics allow to obtain information about the structure and properties of astrophysical objects.
