Abstract
:
"Plasma physics has a short but complex history. Over the past 100 years the subject has embraced a wide range of separate disciplines. The possibility of controlled fusion power generation and its application to magnetospheric physics and astrophysics has made it an essential element of almost all graduate courses in physics. Its relatively short development is reflected in the large amount of research effort currently expended world-wide."-- Provided by publisher
