This title is printed to order. This book may have been self-published. If so, we cannot guarantee the quality of the content. In the main most books will have gone through the editing process however some may not. We therefore suggest that you be aware of this before ordering this book. If in doubt check either the author or publisher’s details as we are unable to accept any returns unless they are faulty. Please contact us if you have any questions.
This book continues the author’s previous two volumes: Magnetically Confined Fusion Plasma Physics: Ideal MHD theory, and Volume 2: Multifluid theory.
The purpose of the book is to provide a bridge between existing plasma physics textbooks and cutting-edge research in magnetic confinement fusion. It will describe advanced kinetic theories resulting from many pioneering efforts in this field, together with their applications. The book will provide a systematic, yet self-contained and fully detailed summary as an essential reference for students and researchers in plasma physics.
Topics covered include drift kinetic theory, kinetic equilibrium theory, gyrokinetic formalism, generalized energy principle, kinetic analyses of plasma stability, electrostatic modes, electromagnetic modes, and energetic particle theory.
