This collection of fundamental formulae, up-to-date references and definitions in plasma physics is vital to anyone with an interest in plasmas or ionized gases, whether in physics, astronomy or engineering. Both theorists and experimentalists will find this book useful, as it incorporates the latest results and findings, with extended coverage of fusion plasma, plasma in stellar winds, reaction rates, engineering plasma and many other topics. The text is also unique in treating astrophysical plasmas, fusion plasmas, industrial plasmas and low temperature plasmas as aspects of the same discipline.

A collection of fundamental formulae and definitions in plasma physics vital to anyone with an interest in plasmas or ionized gases, whether in physics, astronomy or engineering. Ranging over plasma waves, flows, beams and jets, instabilities, particle drifts and kinetic theory, model equations and parametric data, this handbook will become an indispensable quick reference to the formulae needed for the active plasma researcher.
