商品描述
Macroscopic Stability of Toroidally Confined Fusion Plasmas provides a comprehensive guide to the theory of magnetically confined plasma for fusion. Including the latest developments from the field, the book explores fusion-relevant, toroidal, axisymmetric, magnetic confinement devices, including reversed-field pinches, as well as tokamaks.
It begins by defining the requirements and stability limits of fusion devices, then introduces plasma fluid theory and ideal magnetohydrodynamics (MHD). Subsequent chapters examine plasma stability under various conditions, including ideal and resistive effects, and distinguish between outer and inner plasma regions. It analyses axisymmetric and cylindrical equilibria, as well as specific instabilities like ideal external kink modes, ideal internal kink modes, tearing modes and resistive wall modes. The final chapters focus on tokamak stability, including vertical stability and behaviour at finite pressure, providing a comprehensive framework for understanding plasma confinement and instability in fusion systems.
This book is an ideal reference for graduate students, postdoctoral researchers, and professional scientists who wish to learn more about the macroscopic stability of magnetically confined fusion plasmas.
- Provides a complete and up-to-date exposition of macroscopic stability theory.
- Includes novel topics such as three-wave coupling in fusion plasmas.
- Offers a comprehensive treatment of the asymptotic matching approach to plasma stability calculation.
商品描述(中文翻譯)
《Macroscopic Stability of Toroidally Confined Fusion Plasmas》為磁約束核融合電漿理論提供全面性的指南。本書納入該領域的最新發展，探討與核融合相關的環形（toroidal）、軸對稱磁約束裝置，包括反轉磁場箍縮（reversed-field pinch）裝置與托卡馬克（tokamak）。
本書首先定義核融合裝置的需求與穩定性極限，接著介紹電漿流體理論與理想磁流體力學（ideal magnetohydrodynamics, MHD）。後續章節探討各種條件下的電漿穩定性，包括理想效應與電阻效應，並區分電漿外部區域與內部區域。書中分析軸對稱與圓柱形平衡，以及特定的不穩定性，例如理想外部扭曲模態（ideal external kink modes）、理想內部扭曲模態（ideal internal kink modes）、撕裂模態（tearing modes）與電阻壁模態（resistive wall modes）。最後幾章聚焦於托卡馬克的穩定性，包括垂直穩定性與有限壓力下的行為，為理解核融合系統中的電漿約束與不穩定性提供完整架構。
本書是研究生、博士後研究人員，以及希望深入了解磁約束核融合電漿宏觀穩定性之專業科學家的理想參考書。
• 完整且即時地介紹宏觀穩定性理論。
• 涵蓋核融合電漿中的三波耦合（three-wave coupling）等新穎主題。
• 全面處理將漸近匹配（asymptotic matching）方法應用於電漿穩定性計算。
