Review
"The tokamak is the predominant device used to try to wring useful power from thermonuclear fusion. Wesson and a number of collaborating colleagues provide specialists already working in tokamak research with information about other areas of the subject, and those outside the field with an introduction to the principal concepts, methods, and problems involved. He includes equations, formulas, and data that research workers often need. Among the topics are fusion, equilibrium, confinement, instabilities, diagnostics, plasma-surface interactions, and large tokamakis. He has updated the 1987 and 1997 editions to reflect developments in the science and technology." --SciTech Book News
Product Description
The tokamak (a doughnut-shaped vacuum chamber surrounded by magnetic coils) 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. Since the first introductory account of tokamaks in 1987, when the tokamak had become the predominant device in the attempt to achieve a useful power source from the thermonuclear fusion, and the developments and advances in the subject covered in the second edition in 1997, following substantial research on large tokamaks (the long awaited achievement of significant amounts of fusion power and the problems involved in designing and building a tokamak reactor), the emphasis has been on preparing the ground Read more...
