Alfven wave: DOE critical review series
Abstract
The properties of Alfven waves and with their application to fusion are studied. Linear properties in homogeneous and inhomogeneous plasmas are considered. Absorption is treated by means of kinetic theory. Instabilities and nonlinear processes and theory and experiments in plasma heating by Alfen waves are discussed.
