<p>This book presents the fundamental concepts of the theory, illustrated by numerous examples of astrophysical applications. Classical concepts are combined with new developments and the authors demarcate what is well established and what is still under debate. To book illustrates how apparently co

The manuscript tackles one of the most interesting branches of plasma physΒ ics, the electrodynamics of the plasma. 99% of matter in the universe occur in the plasma state, - e. g. , stars, gaseous nebulae, interstellar gas. The plasma also widely occurs on earth. Thus, the ionosphere protects human
Striking, original exposition of classical underpinnings of modern quantum field theory. Space-time, Lorentz transformations, etc. The first comprehensive treatment of relativistic electrodynamics, and still essential reading in the field, deftly revealing the classical underpinnings of modern quant
From the intro: properties of plasmas as a specific state of matter are to an important extent determined by the fact that there are between the particles which constitute the plasma electromagnetic forces which act over macroscopic distances. Processes occurring in a plasma are therefore as a rule
