Description
New Age International (P) Ltd Principles Of Plasma Mechanics by Bishwanath Chakraborty
This book presents a systematic exposition of the fundamental principles involved in plasma mechanics. It also highlights some of the recent developments in the area.
The book emphasises the following topics:
Magnetization by inverse Faraday effect
Ionospheric cross modulation
Relativistic Vlasov equations for waves in plasmas
Kinetic theory of Vlasov for plasmoidal equilibrium structures
Formalism of transformation from laboratory frame to a space independent frame for study of dispersive wave.
With its comprehensive approach and detailed treatment, the book would serve as an excellent text for M.Sc. Physics students as well as research scholars
