Introduction to plasma dynamics

Beginning with an introduction to the characteristics and types of plasmas, this text covers the basic models of classical diffuse plasmas used to describe such phenomena as linear and shock waves, stationary flows, elements of plasma chemistry, and principles of plasma lasers. It describes a number...
