In the present review we survey space plasma systems where the nonlinear resonant
interaction between charged particles and electromagnetic waves plays an important role …

This book treats stochastic motion in nonlinear oscillator systems. It describes a rapidly
growing field of nonlinear mechanics with applications to a number of areas in science and …

Fast ions with energies significantly larger than the bulk ion temperature are used to heat
most tokamak plasmas. Fast ion populations created by fusion reactions, by neutral beam …

This graduate level textbook develops the theory of magnetically confined plasma, with the
aim of bringing the reader to the level of current research in the field of thermonuclear fusion …

The code TORIC solves the finite Larmor radius wave equations in the ion cyclotron range of
frequencies in arbitrary axisymmetric toroidal geometry. The model used, based on the finite …

Stationary plasma thrusters are devices that use crossed electric and magnetic fields to
accelerate ions to high velocities. Ions are created by collisional ionization of a propellant …

Lower hybrid waves are a demonstrated, continuous means of driving toroidal current in a
tokamak. When these waves propagate in a tokamak fusion reactor, in which there are …

The banana orbits of high-energy trapped particles in tokamaks are found to diffuse rapidly
in the radial direction if the toroidal ripple exceeds a low critical value. During this diffusion …

The E× B configuration of various low temperature plasma devices is often responsible for
the formation of rotating structures and instabilities leading to anomalous electron transport …

This book develops the subject of nonlinear plasma physics from a general physics
perspective. It begins with a description of nonlinear oscillations, the parametric instability …
