"Fundamental Aspects of Plasma Chemical Physics: Transport
"develops basic and advanced concepts of plasma transport to the
modern treatment of the Chapman-Enskog method for the solution of
the Boltzmann transport equation.
The book invites the reader to consider actual problems of the
transport of thermal plasmas with particular attention to the
derivation of diffusion- and viscosity-type transport cross
sections, stressing the role of resonant charge-exchange processes
in affecting the diffusion-type collision calculation of
viscosity-type collision integrals.
A wide range of topics is then discussed including (1) the
effect of non-equilibrium vibrational distributions on the
transport of vibrational energy, (2) the role of electronically
excited states in the transport properties of thermal plasmas, (3)
the dependence of transport properties on the multitude of Saha
equations for multi-temperature plasmas, and (4) the effect of the
magnetic field on transport properties.
Throughout the book, worked examples are provided to clarify
concepts and mathematical approaches.
This book is the second of a series of three published by the
Bari group on fundamental aspects of plasma chemical physics. The
first book, "Fundamental Aspects of Plasma Chemical Physics:
Thermodynamics," is dedicated to plasma thermodynamics; and the
third, "Fundamental Aspects of Plasma Chemical Physics: Kinetics,"
deals with plasma kinetics.
