More about the book
This textbook offers an in-depth exploration of plasma physics, focusing on the fundamental processes that govern various types of plasmas, including cold gas-discharge, space, and hot fusion plasmas. It covers key topics such as magnetic confinement and laser fusion principles, collective processes through plasma waves, and the theoretical frameworks of magnetohydrodynamics and kinetic theory. Additionally, it addresses space charge effects and introduces the mechanisms of dusty plasmas, culminating in a summary of contemporary plasma discharges.
