THE PHYSICS OF NON-IDEAL PLASMA

by Vladimir E Fortov & Igor T Iakubov (Russian Academy of Sciences)

This book is devoted to the physical properties of nonideal plasma which is compressed so strongly that the effects of interparticle interactions govern the plasma behavior. The interest in this plasma was generated by the development of modern technologies and facilities whose operations were based on high densities of energy. In this volume, the methods of nonideal plasma generation and diagnostics are considered. The experimental results are given and the main theoretical models of nonideal plasma state are discussed. The problems of thermodynamics, electro-physics, optics and dynamic stability are covered.


Contents:

  • Non-Ideal Plasma. Basic Concepts

  • Electric Conductivity of Fully Ionized Plasma
  • Optical Properties of Dense Plasma
  • Non-Ideal Plasma with Disperse Condensed Phase (CDP)
  • Dynamics and Stability of Non-Ideal Plasma


Readership: Researchers in plasma physics, plasma chemistry, plasma processing of material, light engineering, optics, statistical and experimental physics.
