The\nauthor describes magnetohydrodynamic and kinetic theories of cold and hot\nplasmas in detail. The book covers new important topics for fusion studies such as plasma transport\nby drift turbulence, which depend on the magnetic configuration and zonal flows. These are universal phenomena\nof microturbulence. They can modify the onset criterion for turbulent transport,\ninstabilities driven by energetic particles as well as alpha particle\ngeneration and typical plasma models for computer simulation. The fusion\nresearch of tokamaks with various new versions of H modes are explained. The\ndesign concept of ITER, the international tokamak experimental reactor, is\ndescribed for inductively driven operations as well as steady-state operations using non-inductive\ndrives. Alternative approaches of reversed-field pinch and its relaxation\nprocess, stellator including quasi-symmetric system, open-end system of tandem\nmirror and inertial confinement are also explained. Newly added and updated\ntopics in this second edition include zonal flows, various versions of H modes,\nand steady-state operations of tokamak, the design\nconcept of ITER, the\nrelaxation process of RFP, quasi-symmetric stellator, and tandem mirror. The book\naddresses graduate students and researchers in the field of controlled fusion.   \u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e \u003ch3\u003eDetails\u003c\/h3\u003e \u003cp\u003ePublished by: Springer\u003c\/p\u003e \u003cp\u003ePublication Date: 2016-05-23\u003c\/p\u003e \u003cp\u003eFormat: Hardcover\u003c\/p\u003e \u003cp\u003eISBN-13: 9783662497807\u003c\/p\u003e \u003cp\u003eDOI: 10.1007\/978-3-662-49781-4\u003c\/p\u003e \u003cp\u003eDimensions: 235cm x155cm\u003c\/p\u003e \u003cp\u003ePages: 495\u003c\/p\u003e ","brand":"Springer-Verlag.
