Synopsis: This self-contained book provides an understanding of both linear and nonlinear plasma dynamics in a form that can be used in diverse areas, such as space sciences, laboratory plasma experiments, and plasma processing. The author presents relevant background physics that builds from basic to more advanced topics. The text covers fluid models as well as kinetic plasma models, including a detailed discussion of collision-less Landau damping. It also includes worked examples and problems and describes real-world laboratory examples and basic experimental methods.
