Collective Modes in Inhomogeneous Plasmas: Kinetic and Advanced Fluid Theory presents the collective drift and MHD-type modes in inhomogeneous plasmas from the point of view of two-fluid and kinetic theory. Written by an internationally respected plasma transport theoretician, this introductory monograph emphasizes the description of the plasma rather than the geometry to present a more general approach to a large class of plasma problems. Starting with generalized fluid equations for low frequency phenomena, the author shows how drift waves and MHD-type modes can arise from the effects of inhomogeneities in the plasma. The kinetic description is then presented to reveal a host of phenomena ranging from vortex modes and finite Larmor radius effects to trapped and fast particle instabilities, transport, diffusion, and other advanced fluid effects. Theoretical and computational plasma physicists modeling confined plasmas will find this illustrated book a very valuable addition to their collection.

The development in plasma physics has recently been quite rapid and it is difficult to keep up with the evolution in all areas at the same time. Thus a review of the present state of plasma physics in different areas can be very useful although it is, of course, difficult to make it complete. In the present review we include basic plasma physics, laboratory and space plasmas, fusion plasmas, industrial plasmas and cosmology. Among these there are several contributions on fusion plasmas, including also a general overview of the state of nuclear fusion research. Natural starting points when discussing plasma physics are the facts that plasma is the fourth state of matter and that over 99% of the universe is in the plasma state. With this background it is somewhat surprising that plasmas are very scarce on earth and appear in natural state only in lightenings and, of course, at a distance from the earth as the ionosphere. The main application of plasma physics on earth is for the purpose of energy production but new areas like plasma processing and semiconductor plasmas are increasing in importance. The ionosphere is also of a practical importance for space crafts. In order to have a framework for understanding all these different areas of applications we need basic plasma physics including theory. A new way of understanding plasmas, which has become increasingly useful with the development of powerful computers is by kinetic simulation. Large kinetic simulations can be seen as small scale experiments with very good diagnostic possibilities. Nevertheless the understanding of large scale simulations requires advanced knowledge in statistical physics. For simulations on the transport timescale in tokamaks we still have to resort to fluid models. This makes questions of the fluid closure important. Here we have a cross diciplinary interest with Extended Irreversible Thermodynamics (EIT) used for small nanoscale systems in semiconductors. For such systems an entropy principle has been used for obtaining a fluid closure. A problem with this, for fusion plasmas, is that the entropy principle is valid only for isolated systems. This focuses the interest on the effect of external sources. External sources may, of course be of significant interest for many types of system. Philosophical aspects of external sources enter in cosmology where such sources would alter Hubble s law for the expansion of the universe. A last aspect of plasmas, also connected to the previous discussion of kinetic and fluid modes is the individual particle picture in contrast to the collective motion picture. Of course individual particle orbits are fundamental to plasma physics and to confinement in fusion systems. Nevertheless it is usually the collective aspects of many such individual orbits which dominate the dynamics in magnetic confinement. It is easy to get an intuitive feeling for collective plasma motion by looking at the discharge in a vacuum tube. It is also natural to associate the collective motion with the fluid picture. Thus in a kinetic description of collective phenomena we may think of the dynamics in terms of fluidlike bulk motion together with individual particles which are in some kind of resonance with the bulk motion. We here speak about particles which are not localized with respect to the bulk structures. An interesting, but not surprising, point is that localisation of particles in the fluid sense and in the overall confinement sense is typically provided by the same physics processes.

Plasma Transport, Heating and MHD Theory provides information pertinent to the theory of plasma transport, heating, and MHD. This book describes the resistive steady states of elliptical cross-section plasmas. Organized into five parts encompassing 28 chapters, this book begins with an overview of the effects due to instabilities excited in the low-density regime of tokamaks by runaway electrons via the cyclotron resonance. This text then examines the formulation of transport theory, which is applied to transport in tokamak due to trapped-particle instabilities in the quasi-linear stage. Other chapters consider the stability of the boundary regions of gas insulated plasmas. This book discusses as well the zero-dimensional or point model of the Elmo Bumpy Torus (EBT) experiment in which spatial dependences are eliminated by replacing all plasma gradients by characteristic scale lengths equal to the plasma minor radius. The final chapter deals with anomalous transport theory. This book is a valuable resource for plasma physicists.

The book introduces readers to and summarizes the current ideas and theories about the basic mechanisms for transport in chaotic flows. Typically no single paradigmatic approach exists as this topic is relevant for fields as diverse as plasma physics, geophysical flows and various branches of engineering. Accordingly, the dispersion of matter in chaotic or turbulent flows is analyzed from different perspectives. Partly based on lecture courses given by the author, this book addresses both graduate students and researchers in search of a high-level but approachable and broad introduction to the topic.

This book is intended to serve as an introduction to the multidisciplinary ?eld of anomalous diffusion in complex systems such as turbulent plasma, convective rolls, zonal ?ow systems, stochastic magnetic ?elds, etc. In spite of its great importance, turbulent transport has received comparatively little treatment in published mo- graphs. This book attempts a comprehensive description of the scaling approach to turbulent diffusion. From the methodological point of view, the book focuses on the general use of correlation estimates, quasilinear equations, and continuous time random walk - proach. I provide a detailed structure of some derivations when they may be useful for more general purposes. Correlation methods are ?exible tools to obtain tra- port scalings that give priority to the richness of ingredients in a physical pr- lem. The mathematical description developed here is not meant to provide a set of “recipes” for hydrodynamical turbulence or plasma turbulence; rather, it serves to develop the reader’s physical intuition and understanding of the correlation mec- nisms involved.

For a few seconds with large machines, scientists and engineers have now created the fusion power of the stars in the laboratory and at the same time find the rich range of complex turbulent electromagnetic waves that transport the plasma confinement systems. The turbulent transport mechanisms created in the laboratory are explained in detail in the second edition of "Turbulent Transport in Magnetized Plasmas" by Professor Horton. The principles and properties of the major plasma confinement machines are explored with basic physics to the extent currently understood. For the observational laws that are not understood — the empirical confinement laws — offering challenges to the next generation of plasma students and researchers — are explained in detail. An example, is the confinement regime — called the "I–mode" — currently a hot topic — is explored. Numerous important problems and puzzles for the next generation of plasma scientists are explained. There is growing demand for new simulation codes utilizing the massively parallel computers with MPI and GPU methods. When the 20 billion dollar ITER machine is tested in the 2020ies, new theories and faster/smarter computer simulations running in near real-time control systems will be used to control the burning hydrogen plasmas.
