Opis

This text explains the way in which different physical systems, predominantly those of plasmas and hydrodynamics, alter when subject to non-linear primary instabilities. It contains a comprehensive account of the problems, applications and origins of these non-linear instabilities.

Recenzje

"The present book is of large interest for theoreticians working in the fields of plasma kinetics and magnetohydrodynamics and their applications to astrophysics and geophysics. It should not be missing in any astrophysical and geophysical library."
