Plasma Physics and Engineering presents basic and applied knowledge
on modern plasma physics, plasma chemistry, and plasma engineering
for senior undergraduate and graduate students as well as for
scientists and engineers working in academia; research labs; and
industry with plasmas, laser and, combustion systems. This is a
unique book providing a clear fundamental introduction to all
aspects of modern plasma science, describing all electric
discharges applied today from vacuum to atmospheric pressure and
higher, from thermal plasma sources to essentially cold
non-equilibrium discharges. A solutions manual is available for
adopting professors, which is helpful in relevant university
courses. Provides a lucid introduction to virtually all aspects of
modern plasma science and technology Contains an extensive database
on plasma kinetics and thermodynamics Includes many helpful
numerical formulas for practical calculations, as well as numerous
problems and concepts This revised edition includes new material on
atmospheric pressure discharges, micro discharges, and different
types of discharges in liquids Prof. Alexander Fridman is Nyheim
Chair Professor of Drexel University and Director of C. & J.
Nyheim Plasma Institute. His research focuses on plasma approaches
to biology and medicine, to material treatment, fuel conversion,
and environmental control. Prof. Fridman has almost 50 years of
plasma research in national laboratories and universities of
Russia, France, and the United States. He has published 8 books,
and received numerous honors for his work, including Stanley Kaplan
Distinguished Professorship in Chemical Kinetics and Energy
Systems, George Soros Distinguished Professorship in Physics, the
State Prize of the USSR, Plasma Medicine Award, Kurchatov Prize,
Reactive Plasma Award, and Plasma Chemistry Award. Prof. Lawrence
A. Kennedy is Dean of Engineering Emeritus and Professor of
Mechanical Engineering Emeritus at the University of Illinois at
Chicago and Professor of Mechanical Engineering Emeritus at the
Ohio State University. His research focuses on chemically reacting
flows and plasma processes. He is the author of more than 300
archival publications and 2 books, the editor of three monographs
and served as Editor–in-Chief of the International Journal of
Experimental Methods in Thermal and Fluid Science. Professor
Kennedy was the Ralph W. Kurtz Distinguished Professor of
Mechanical Engineering at OSU and the Stanley Kaplan University
Scholar in Plasma Physics at UIC. Prof. Kennedy is also the
recipient of numerous awards such as the American Society of
Mechanical Engineers Heat Transfer Memorial Award (2008), and the
Ralph Coats Roe Award from ASEE (1993). He is a Fellow of the
American Society of Mechanical Engineers, the American Physical
Society, the American Institute of Aeronautics and Astronautics and
the American Association for the Advancement of Science.
