This complete introduction to plasma physics and controlled fusion
by one of the pioneering scientists in this expanding field offers
both a simple and intuitive discussion of the basic concepts of
this subject and an insight into the challenging problems of
current research. In a wholly lucid manner the work covers
single-particle motions, fluid equations for plasmas, wave motions,
diffusion and resistivity, Landau damping, plasma instabilities and
nonlinear problems. For students, this outstanding text offers a
painless introduction to this important field; for teachers, a
large collection of problems; and for researchers, a concise review
of the fundamentals as well as original treatments of a number of
topics never before explained so clearly. This revised edition
contains new material on kinetic effects, including Bernstein waves
and the plasma dispersion function, and on nonlinear wave equations
and solitons. For the third edition, updates was made throughout
each existing chapter, and two new chapters were added; Ch 9 on
"Special Plasmas" and Ch 10 on Plasma Applications (including
Atmospheric Plasmas).
