Description and Table of Contents

Description

This two-volume text presents a detailed treatment of two areas of plasma physics which have developed rapidly over recent years. Volume 2 presents the main experimental and theoretical results of studies of plasma flow around bodies and discusses results from space probe and satellite experiments.
