Plasma Physics - Basic Theory with Fusion Applications
presents a thorough treatment of plasma physics, beginning
at an introductory level and including an extensive
discussion of its applications in thermonuclear fusion
research. The physics of fusion plasmas is explained mainly
in relation to recent progress in tokamak research, but
other plasma confinement schemes, such as stellarators and
inertial confinement, are alsodescribed.
The unique and systematic presentation will help readers to
understand the overall structure of plasma theory and will
faciliate access to more advanced literature on specialist
topics. Numerous problems will assist the students in
mastering the text.
