This advanced textbook on fundamental macroscopic plasma physics emphasizes the nonlinear and relativistic effects due to laser-plasma interactions. Experiments with lasers of high intensity helped to discover new quantum effects and the longitudinal components of optical radiat…
High-energy-density physics explores the dynamics of matter at extreme conditions. This encompasses temperatures and densities far greater than we experience on Earth. It applies to normal stars, exploding stars, active galaxies, and planetary interiors. High-energy-density matt…
