This volume presents papers from an international workshop discussing current research in plasma physics. Topics addressed include: plasma and fusion theory; space and atmospheric plasma; and experimental plasma physics.
Part 1 Plasma and fusion theory: negative-energy modes in collisionless kinetic theories and their possible relation to nonlinear instabilities, D. Pfirsch. Part 2 Space and atmospheric plasma: space observations, turbulence theories and simulation of the electron beam instability, C.T. Dum; a survey of MHD stagnations flows in bounded systems, F.T. Gratton and L.E. Bender. Part 3 Experimental plasma physics: experimental investigations of two-dimensional plasma turbulence, T. Huld et al; collision processes and active lithium-beam diagnostics in tokamak edge plasmas, H.P. Winter. (Part contents).
