Magnetically Confined Fusion Plasma Physics

Ideal MHD theory

Beschreibung

This book describes the ideal magnetohydrodynamic (MHD) theory for magnetically confined fusion plasmas. Advanced topics are presented in an attempt to fill the gap between up-to-date research developments and plasma physics textbooks. Each topic is self-contained and trackable, with the mathematical treatments detailed and underlying physics explained. Both analytical theories and numerical schemes are also provided, and the current research developments in this field as well as the future prospects are discussed.

Autor

Dr. Linjin Zheng is a theoretical physicist for controlled thermonuclear fusion plasmas. He received his PhD from Institute of Physics at the Chinese Academy of Sciences in Beijing. He is currently working at The University of Texas at Austin, Institute for Fusion Studies. His major contributions with his colleagues include the reformulation of gyrokinetic theory, development of the theoretical interpretation for the so-called edge localized modes, invention of the free boundary ballooning representation, discoveries of second toroidal Alfven egenmodes and current interchange tearing modes.
