This is thus the first book to find theoretical explanations to the sometimes-puzzling tokamak observations.
2
Magnetic Control of
Tokamak Plasmas
The main topic of this monograph is the design of a feedback control system for magnetic fields to guarantee the plasma equilibrium inside a tokamak with a prescribed position and shape.
Marco Ariola, Alfredo Pironti, 2008
The tokamak is the principal tool in controlled fusion research. This book acts as an introduction to the subject and a basic reference for theory, definitions, equations, and experimental results.

Nonlinear and Relativistic Effects in Plasmas
As tokamak experiments progress towards the reactor regime, the hotter
temperatures promote to greater prominence the role played by mildly relativistic
electrons. These electrons dominate the plasma synchrotron radiation, and they
can ...
