    Why don't you give exact delivery time?

    Delivery time is estimated on our previous experiences. We give estimations only, because we order from outside Hungary, and the delivery time mainly depends on how quickly the publisher supplies the book. Faster or slower deliveries both happen, but we do our best to supply as quickly as possible.

    Short description:

    This monograph contains all aspects of plasma physics for plasma confinement in stellarator and heliotron devices. Present achievements and prospects for next generation devices are included.

    Long description:

    This book systematically introduces plasma physics that will enable nuclear fusion for continous energy production. Especially emphasized is the nonaxissymmetric toroidal field, invented and developed at Kyoto University. All aspects required for the magnetic confinement, formation of magnetic surface, magnetohydrodynamic equilibrium and stability, single charged particle confinement, neoclassical transport and plasma heating are covered. Wakatani also includes experiments and considers the prospects for next generation devices.

    For the laboratory plasma physicist, for whom it is written, this volume will surely be of great value...It is also salutory to be reminded just how sophisticated fusion research as become, driven by the combination of theory and experiment.
