Written at the graduate level, Generation and Application of High
Power Microwaves discusses the basic physics of the generation of
microwave and radiofrequency waves in the megawatt power range and
the application of these ideas to a range of devices such as
klystrons, gyrotrons, and free electron lasers. The book also
contains chapters covering the transmission of the power through
waveguides and the problems associated with mode conversion in
transmission lines. The main application area covered is the
heating and current drive in tokamaks and other devices for
research into controlled nuclear fusion. Other applications of high
power microwave technology are not neglected, and among those
discussed are multiple charged ion and soft x-ray sources, electron
spin resonance spectroscopy, advanced materials processing,
millimeter wave radar, and supercolliders.
A Solid Compendium of Advanced Diagnostic and Simulation Tools
Exploring the most exciting and topical areas in this field,
Laser-Plasma Interactions focuses on the interaction of intense
laser radiation with plasma. After discussing the basic theory of
the interaction of intense electromagnetic radiation fields with
matter, the book covers three applications of intense fields in
plasma: inertial fusion, wakefield accelerators, and advanced
radiation sources. Collecting contributions from a host of
international experts, the book provides a thorough grounding in
the fundamental concepts of the interaction of electromagnetic
radiation with matter, before moving on to selected advanced topics
from the field. It describes state-of-the-art diagnostic tools and
experimental techniques used to study laser-plasma interactions as
well as simulation tools for modeling these interactions. With a
focus on current research trends, this book guides readers to the
brink of the most stimulating challenges in the field. It also
gives readers an appreciation of the underlying phenomena linking
several applications.
