| Item Description: | "Conference collection. - "All papers have been peer reviewed. - "Regarding the work included in the present volume, the reader will find a review of the state of the art of laboratory plasmas, specifically related to the area of magnetic confinement, by Professor Callen and J. Martinell, as well as theoretical and experimental reviews of the physics of plasmas produced in heavy ion collisions, written by expert researchers such as G. Wolschin, A. Ayala and E. Calzetta. The remaining articles are devoted to the foundations of plasma physics, using kinetic theory as the fundamental approach to the establishment of transport equations and to the formal study of thermodynamic variables in relativistic fluids, such as the entropy production in the presence of gravitational field."--Preface (page 1). - Includes bibliographical references and author index. - Online resource; title from PDF title page (AIP web site, viewed June 12, 2014) |
