Product Description

Review

"Excellent for students. New addition of liquid plasma discharge is very good. ... Top rate ... opens the eyes of students who are learning this subject for the first time ... has the best chemistry of various plasma discharges and covers a wide range of industrial applications of cold plasma discharges."
-- Young I Cho, Drexel University, Philadelphia, Pennsylvania --This text refers to an alternate Hardcover edition.

Product Description

Plasma engineering is a rapidly expanding area of science and technology with increasing numbers of engineers using plasma processes over a wide range of applications. An essential tool for understanding this dynamic field, Plasma Physics and Engineering provides a clear, fundamental introduction to virtually all aspects of modern plasma science and technology, including plasma chemistry and engineering, combustion, chemical physics, lasers, electronics, methods of material treatment, fuel conversion, and environmental control. The book contains an extensive database on plasma kinetics and thermodynamics, many helpful numerical formulas for practical calculations, and an array of problems and concept questions.

5.0 out of 5 stars book for plasma engineers, May 26 2004

(REAL NAME)   
This review is from: Plasma Physics and Engineering (Hardcover)
This book focuses on the most important and fundamental issues of
plasma physics and applications in today's industry. It provides an
excellent introduction and overview of plasma. It covers almost all
aspects of plasma physics and engineering and has a lot of useful
examples.

In this book, author gave a thorough consideration of the theory of
breakdown phenomena leading to formation of different plasma
discharges and finally covered, in considerable depth, the physics and
main features behind the major discharges intensively used in
cutting-edge technologies. Along with the well known material, the
most interesting and important innovations in area of plasma physics
are also gathered and discussed.

It is extremely useful as reference and textbook. I highly recommend it to anyone interested in plasma.

4.0 out of 5 stars excellent text, 5 stars if it wasn't for the typos, Nov 3 2006
By L. I. Tobos "x95larry" - Published on Amazon.com
This review is from: Plasma Physics and Engineering (Hardcover)
This is a great reference, with wonderful physical insight into plasma kinetics mechanisms. Unfortunately the astonishing work of the authors is undermined by minor typos from the editor, which may throw off beginners- equations where charges or species don't add up, and the like. I could not find an errata yet, therefore only the 4 stars; but sincere congrats to the authors for such indepth and insightful work.
