About this ebook

Authored by a highly regarded plasma scientist, this book fills the gap for a topical reference and source with a professional audience in mind. While the use of this critical method at the international fusion reactor, ITER, is covered in detail, the monograph also includes planetary magnetospheres and plasma sources for commercial applications.
With exercises and solutions for additional use as course reading.

About the author

Gareth Guest has participated in the development of electron cyclotron heating of plasmas since the early phases of the ECH research program at the Oak Ridge National Laboratory, where the work focused on heating plasmas in magnetic mirrors and the ELMO Bumpy Torus. He subsequently advocated the use of ECH to enhance the performance of tokamaks at the General Atomic Company, and worked closely with experimental researchers at Applied Microwave Plasma Concepts to explore possible applications of ECH to magnetospheric plasmas and various commercially important plasma systems. This broad experience is reflected in Electron Cyclotron Heating of Plasmas, which seeks to aid researchers in making use of electron cyclotron heating in as wide a range of applications as possible.
