Beschreibung
V knige dano izloženie fiziki plazmy kak razdela sovremennoj fiziki v rasčete na širokuju fizičeskuju auditoriju, imejučšuju delo s plazmennymi javlenijami vne sobstvenno fiziki plazmy. V ėtoj svjazi sistematičeski prosleživajutsja plazmennye analogii v fizike splošnoj sredy, fizike tverdogo tela i poluprovodnikov, geofizike, astrofizike i t.d.
Specialisty po fizike plazmy mogut počerpnut′ iz knigi informaciju o rasprostranenii idej i predstavlenij o različnych processach, protekajučšich v plazme, na smežnye oblasti fiziki.
Dannaja kniga predstavljaet soboj zadumannoe akademikom L.A. Arcimovičem sistematičeskoe razvitie kratkogo kursa lekcij «Čto každyj fizik dolžen znat′ o plazme». Čtenie knigi predpolagaet podgotovku na urovne universitetskogo kursa občšej fiziki.
Kniga prednaznačena dlja fizikov i inženerov-fizikov širokogo profilja.

Plasma Physics for Physicists
Acad. Lev Artsimovich, soon after he completed a shorter version «What should every physicist know about Plasma», invited Acad. Roald Sagdeev as coauthor. He decided to fill it with appropriate theoretical guideline and convert it into Basic course on Physics of Hot Plasmas, which could be used by much broader audience then fusion community only.
But unfortunately Acad. Lev Artsimovich left unfinished this book. Joint work was revised and finished by coauthor in 1978 in order to give up-to-date picture of principal ideas in the field of Hot Plasma Physics, originated mainly by fusion research. Later they diffused to space plasma, to astrophysics as well as to solid-state plasma.
To read this book it requires the knowledge of basic physics of university level.
