En savoir plus sur le livre
A groundbreaking textbook on twenty-first-century plasma physics and its applications is now available in five stand-alone volumes, ideal for graduate or advanced undergraduate courses in various fields. Each volume emphasizes fundamental concepts, modern applications, and provides a physical and intuitive understanding of the subject. The volume on Plasma Physics offers an essential introduction, focusing on a gas that is significantly ionized, composed of electrons and ions, often influenced by magnetic fields. Plasmas are crucial in numerous contemporary applications, including controlled thermonuclear fusion, radio wave propagation in the ionosphere, and the behavior of the solar corona and wind. In astrophysics, plasmas are responsible for emissions across the electromagnetic spectrum, including phenomena from black holes, magnetized neutron stars, and ultrarelativistic outflows. This volume also serves as supplementary reading for courses in astrophysics, geophysics, and controlled fusion. The five volumes are available individually as paperbacks and ebooks, covering Statistical Physics, Optics, Elasticity and Fluid Dynamics, Plasma Physics, and Relativity and Cosmology.
