Full Description
This is both a textbook for beginners and a reference book for specialists in plasma physics and gaseous electronics. The reader is provided with data, estimates of typical parameters, and formulas in forms suitable for computations. A comprehensive bibliography of relevant literature is included. Gas discharges of all important types are dealt with in detail - the breakdown phenomenon in constant and varying fields, glow, arc, spark and corona discharges, high frequency, microwave and optical discharges; the interaction between plasma electrons and electrostatic and electromagnetic fields, elementary processes, low temperature plasma generation and applications to high power gas lasers. This monograph on fluids, plasmas and electric discharges; physics of plasmas and electric discharges; quantum optics, lasers and nonlinear optics is intended for researchers, engineers, students, lecturers, and for use in industry.
