OverviewThis comprehensive treatment of the physics of small-amplitude waves in hot magnetized plasmas provides an update of the author's ""Theory of Plasma Waves"". New topics covered include quasi-linear theory, inhomogenous plasmas, collisions, absolute and convective instability, and mode conversion. The book is aimed at graduate and advanced undergraduate students and researchers in plasmas, controlled fusion and space science. Full Product DetailsAuthor: Thomas H.
