Written following Einstein’s concept of pursuing beauty and truth in science to keep balance, the book carefully considers both accessibility and scientific accuracy.   It bridges challenging concepts in plasma science with breakthrough, “out-of-the-box” solutions to solve key challenges, from microelectronics, the development of new materials, securing environment and food safety protections, to novel approaches in energy systems, thermonuclear fusion, and finally - plasma medicine, where it can be used to heal diseases not effectively treated before.   This book is suitable as a textbook for introductory and short plasma modules for undergraduates and can also serve as a handy guide for professionals working in industry and medicine. Relevant mathematical formulas are substituted by art, illustrations, and images which can be enjoyed even by those without a scientific education who are interested and intrigued by this exciting topic and its modern applications.   Key features:Provides a comprehensive introduction to the fundamentals of plasma physics and the basics of plasma engineering.   Explores the cutting-edge physics and engineering of all major thermal and non-thermal plasma sources – from coronas, dielectric barrier (DBD), and glow discharges to RF ICP\/CCP discharges, cold and hot arc discharges etc.   Balances accessibility and breadth, exploring plasma applications from microelectronics, the development of new materials, securing environment and food safety protections, to novel approaches in energy systems, thermonuclear fusion, and plasma medicine.","brand":"Gardners","offers":[{"title":"Paperback","offer_id":57682849530229,"sku":"9781032909158","price":73.99,"currency_code":"GBP","in_stock":true},{"title":"Hardback","offer_id":57536414581109,"sku":"9781032914169","price":210.0,"currency_code":"GBP","in_stock":true}]}],"url":"https:\/\/backstory.london\/collections\/author-alexander-fridman.oembed","provider":"Backstory","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
