TY - JOUR TI - Physics of Fully Ionized Gases AU - Lyman Spitzer AU - Raymond J. Seeger PY - 1963 JO - American Journal of Physics DO - 10.1119/1.1969155 UR - https://doi.org/10.1119/1.1969155 AB - This classic graduate-level volume was the first general but simple introduction to the fields of plasma and fusion research. Since its original publication in 1956, it has served as a valuable reference. Designed for those who have had an introductory course in theoretical physics but are otherwise unacquainted with the detailed kinetic theory of gases, it chiefly emphasizes macroscopic equations and their consequences.The contents are restricted to topics offering a theoretical understanding of plasma and fusion research.
