Self-Organization of Hot Plasmas The Canonical Profile Transport Model / by Yu.N. Dnestrovskij.

This book is devoted to the problem of confinement of energy and particles in tokamak plasmas. The author presents the Canonical Profile Transport Model or CPTM as a rather general mathematical framework to simulate plasma discharges. The description of hot plasmas in a magnetic fusion device is a v...
