Introduction to Plasma Physics (Paperback) (ISBN-13: 9780750301831)

Focusing on the fundamentals of modern plasma physics, this text is ideal for an introductory lecture course on plasma physics. Sections on single-particle motion, plasmas as fluids, and collisional processes in plasmas lay the groundwork for a thorough understanding of the subject. The authors place the material in its historical context for a rich understanding of the ideas presented. They also emphasize the importance of medical imaging in radiotherapy, providing a logical link to more advanced works in the area. The text includes problems, tables, illustrations, a thorough index, and a complete list of references.
