Bøker i Cambridge Monographs on Plasma Physics-serien

This book, first published in 2000, is a comprehensive introduction to the theory of magnetic field line reconnection, now a major subject in plasma physics. Of value to researchers and graduate students interested in magnetic processes, both in astrophysical and fusion plasmas.

A comprehensive description of the theoretical foundations and experimental applications of spectroscopic methods in plasmas.

This text provides a comprehensive treatment of collisional transport theory, a topic central to the field of theoretical plasma physics. Students, theoreticians and experimentalists in both fusion and space plasma physics will benefit from this book, which emerged from a graduate student level course taught at MIT.

Now in paperback, this book provides a self-contained introduction to magnetohydrodynamics, with emphasis on nonlinear processes. The focus is more on physical mechanisms than on special formalisms. Essential reading for researchers and graduate students interested in magnetohydrodynamic processes both in laboratory and in astrophysical plasmas.
