{"product_id":"collective-phenomena-in-plasmas-and-kamel-ourabah-9781786307699","title":"Collective Phenomena in Plasmas and Elsewhere: Kinetic and Hydrodynamic Approaches","description":"The Universe is made up of systems consisting of a very large number of particles interacting in a very complex way. When studying these systems, a precise microscopic approach is unattainable. In practice, the best strategy is one that is able to \"distinguish\" between superfluous information and the information needed to make predictions about the evolution of the system. There are two main competing approaches: kinetic and hydrodynamic. \u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003ci\u003eCollective Phenomena in Plasmas and Elsewhere\u003c\/i\u003e presents an overview of the theoretical bases of these kinetic and hydrodynamic approaches, but also discusses their limitations, the links between them and their extension to quantum mechanics and relativity. \u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003eThese methods were born in part out of the study of plasmas, but they also have more universal applications. A general framework for these approaches is outlined, followed by some applications in plasmas, gravitation, Bose-Einstein condensates and dark matter. Particular emphasis is placed on the analogies that can be made between all these different systems.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eAuthor:\u003c\/b\u003e Kamel Ourabah\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eISBN-10:\u003c\/b\u003e 1786307693\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eISBN-13:\u003c\/b\u003e 9781786307699\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePublisher:\u003c\/b\u003e Wiley-Iste\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eLanguage:\u003c\/b\u003e English\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePublished:\u003c\/b\u003e 10\/03\/2023\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePages:\u003c\/b\u003e 192\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eFormat:\u003c\/b\u003e Hardcover\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eWeight:\u003c\/b\u003e 0.99lbs\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eSize:\u003c\/b\u003e 9.21h x 6.14w x 0.50d","brand":"Kamel Ourabah","offers":[{"title":"Hardcover","offer_id":48437047099647,"sku":"9781786307699","price":165.0,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0662\/2982\/9887\/files\/img_140070ed-295c-49af-867f-291763c3225c.jpg?v=1777159504","url":"https:\/\/www.whiterainbookhouse.com\/products\/collective-phenomena-in-plasmas-and-kamel-ourabah-9781786307699","provider":"WR Book House","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
