The most informative way to study laboratory and astrophysical plasmas is by analysing their radiation, specifically the polarization and directional effects in the radiation from plasmas. The book covers various polarization and directional effects in the radiation of satellites of spectral lines from plasmas, in the intra-Stark spectroscopy of plasmas, in the Stark broadening of spectral lines by a high-energy hydrogen or deuterium beam, or by a relativistic electron beam in magnetic fusion plasmas, in the Stark broadening of spectral lines in strongly-magnetized plasmas, in the radiation of plasma-based x-ray lasers, and in the laser-induced fluorescence from plasmas.
Key Features
- Reveals the polarization and directional effects within the scope of the book by analytical methods, providing the physical insight that simulations lack
- Covers quasi-energy states, which is an advanced formalism facilitating solutions and providing better understanding of many problems in this research area
- Collects together various polarization and directional effects in the radiation from plasmas, presented in numerous research papers

Об авторе
Professor Eugene Oks received his Ph D degree from the Moscow Institute of Physics and Technology, and later the highest degree of Doctor of Sciences from the Institute of General Physics of the Academy of Sciences of the USSR by the decision of the Scientific Council led by the Nobel Prize winner, academician A M Prokhorov. His research has included atomic and molecular physics, plasma physics, laser physics, astrophysics, and nonlinear dynamics. He has also discovered new research areas such as intra-Stark spectroscopy and quantum chaos and has consequently published over 600 papers and thirteen books on relevant subjects. Professor Oks works at Auburn University and is continuing his research into theoretical atomic and molecular physics, plasma physics, and astrophysics.
