内容説明
Magnetohydrodynamics, the study of the motion of electrically conducting fluids in magnetic fields, is an important area in plasma physics. The effects of instabilities in such electrical fluids are very difficult to calculate and this is the first book to deal with the subject as a whole in a detailed manner. MHD and Microinstabilities in Confined Plasma starts from first principles and builds up to a full understanding of MHD. It features a number of topics not covered in other books on plasma, including non-linear theory, anomalous transport and magnetic reconnection.
