To keep pace with these challenges and technological developments, a modern scientific discussion of plasma physics must enhance, and exploit, its ?literacy? in kinetic theory. For example, accurate analytical calculations and computer simulations of kinetic instabilities are predicated on a knowledge of Vlasov?Maxwell equilibria as an initial condition. This book highlights new fundamental work on Vlasov?Maxwell equilibria, of potential interest to mathematicians and physicists alike. Possible applications involve two of the most significant magnetic structures known to confine plasma and store energy: current sheets and flux tubes.
Nominated as an outstanding Ph.D thesis by the University of St Andrews, St Andrews, UK
Presents a pedagogical approach to the subject matter that is as self-contained as possible
Covers specialist topics presented within the context of both historical and modern-day plasma physics research
Highlights new fundamental work on Vlasov–Maxwell equilibria, of potential interest to mathematicians and physicists alike
