Description and Table of Contents

Description

Beginning at an introductory level, this text presents a treatment of plasma physics, including a discussion of its applications in thermo-nuclear fusion research. A feature of this book is its comprehensive description of the various concepts and formulas widely used in fusion theory based on the fundamental equations of the plasma fluid. 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 also described. The systematic presentation will help readers to understand the overall structure of plasma theory and will facilitate access to more advanced literature on special topics.
