The Fourth Symposium on Double Layers and Other Nonlinear Potential Structures in Plasmas was held in July 1992 in Austria. 86 scientists from all parts of the world attended. The 51 papers that were contributed, in addition to 14 invited lectures, have been compiled in this book. The main topics discussed during the Symposium include experiments, theory, simulation, space and others. The invited speakers concentrated on the various laboratory double layers, theoretical and numerical treatments of double layers and the existence of magnetospheric double layers. The last topic in particular inspired much lively and interesting debate among the participants.

Fusion research started over half a century ago. Although the task remains unfinished, the end of the road could be in sight if society makes the right decisions. Nuclear Fusion: Half a Century of Magnetic Confinement Fusion Research is a careful, scholarly account of the course of fusion energy research over the past fifty years. The authors outline the different paths followed by fusion research from initial ignorance to present understanding. They explore why a particular scheme would not work and why it was more profitable to concentrate on the mainstream tokamak development. The book features descriptive sections, in-depth explanations of certain physical and technical issues, scientific terms, and an extensive glossary that explains relevant abbreviations and acronyms.

Market: Plasma physicists and students. Upon publication in 1968, Plasma Diagnostics represented the most up- to-date survey of the experimental methods used in plasma analysis, including the necessary theoretical background. This work emphasizes spectroscopic techniques along with in-depth sections on laser techniques and electric and magnetic probe methods. The evaluation of collision and transport cross sections, heat and electrical conductivity, and viscosity are some of the many applications of plasma diagnostics reviewed as well. This long-awaited reprint volume is of interest to both physicists and students of theoretical physics as it deals with plasma theory from a fundamental point of view, stressing a careful derivation and discussion of the equations.
