One essential feature of plasma media is supporting various plasma
waves and dictating electromagnetic wave propagation. This textbook
provides students with an understanding of plasma waves, which is
key to theoretical and experimental plasma research and
understanding the experimental results, and will enable them to
expand their studies into related areas.The first part of the text
provides the basis of plasma modes, including the formulations,
analyses and the physical characterizations. The second part
introduces techniques for the studies of wave propagation in
inhomogeneous plasma and of nonlinear mode-mode coupling in
turbulent plasma as well as in active plasma, applied to exemplify
the excitation of parametric instabilities in high-frequency (HF)
wave heated ionospheric plasma. The third part introduces nonlinear
plasma waves of periodic function forms and of solitary forms; a
potential application of the HF wave-ionosphere interaction for
setting up an ionospheric very-low-frequency transmitter for
underwater communications is introduced.This is also a useful
reference book for researchers in the areas of plasma physics and
engineering, and in geophysics.
