Overview of the Book:-
This book is a standard academic text designed for undergraduate and postgraduate physics students. It introduces the fundamental concepts of plasma physics—the study of charged particles and fluids interacting with self-consistent electric and magnetic fields.
Key Topics Covered in Plasma Physics
A textbook of this nature typically covers the following foundational areas:
- Plasma Characteristics: Definition of plasma, Debye shielding, plasma parameters, and criteria for plasma state.
- Single-Particle Motions: Motion of charged particles in uniform and non-uniform electric (\(E\)) and magnetic (\(B\)) fields, drifts (gradient, curvature, and \(E \times B\) drifts), and adiabatic invariants.
- Plasma as a Fluid: Fluid equations of motion, magnetohydrodynamics (MHD), plasma continuity, and momentum equations.
- Waves in Plasmas: Electron and ion plasma waves, acoustic waves, electromagnetic waves in unmagnetized and magnetized plasmas, and whistler modes.
- Diffusion and Resistivity: Particle collisions, diffusion coefficients in weakly ionized gases, and ambipolar diffusion.
- Introduction to Controlled Fusion: Lawson criterion, magnetic confinement (tokamacks, stellarators), and inertial confinement fusion.
