Plasma Physics: Concepts and Applications

Plasma is a fundamental state of matter. It is generally produced by heating or by subjecting a neutral gas to a strong electromagnetic radiation thereby converting it into an ionized gas. In plasma physics, the bulk properties of plasma like magnetization, thermal properties, non-thermal properties as well as classification and production of commercial and industrial plasmas are studied. It has applications in diverse areas such as fusion technology, food processing, enhanced oil recovery and plasma medicine. Research in theoretical domains of plasma physics extends into the areas of plasma production in high energy interactions in nature, plasma stability, equilibria and confinement among others. This book unravels the recent studies in the field of theoretical and applied plasma physics. It also provides significant information of the technological advances and recent research frontiers to help develop a holistic understanding of this field. This book presents all aspects of this discipline in a comprehensive way and will be beneficial to researchers and students.
