Description

Approximately 80 leading scientists attended an international conference at the University of Rochester in 1992 to discuss a wide range of issues at the frontiers of strongly coupled plasma physics. Topics addressed included densehydrogen, various astrophysical applications, laser-plasma and beam-plasma interactions, bound states and radiation, dense plasma experiments, trapped ions and electrons, magnetic field effects, equations of state and collectivemodes, Monte Carlo simulations of classical and quantum plasmas, molecular dynamics and density functional calculations, transport phenomena, colloidal suspensions and glasses, and liquid-state theories. H.M. van HORNis Professor of Physics and Astronomy at the University of Rochester; S. ICHMARUis Professor of Physics at the University of Tokyo.
