Description
This book describes
two aspects of fusion plasma physics that are usually treated separately. Written in tutorial form, the first part of
the book presents some of the essentials of magnetically confined plasma
physics that are necessary for an in-depth understanding of the basic
principles and underlying phenomena, in a consistent and comprehensive way. The second part is focused on existing
powerful sources of high-frequency coherent radiation used for electron
cyclotron resonance heating (ECRH), electron cyclotron resonance current drive
(ECRCD), as well as for plasma ignition, control, and diagnostics in different
fusion devices such as ITER and DEMO that are currently under development.
