Nuclear fusion

Most popular at the top

  • Plasma-Material Interaction in Controlled Fusionby D. Naujoks

    Springer-Verlag Berlin and Heidelberg GmbH & Co. KG 2006; US$ 149.99

    Deals with the specific contact between the fourth state of matter, that is, plasma, and the first state of matter, that is, a solid wall, in controlled fusion experiments. This work also includes a comprehensive analysis of the main processes of plasma-surface interaction together with an assessment of the critical questions. more...

  • An Introduction to Inertial Confinement Fusionby Susanne Pfalzner

    CRC Press 2006; US$ 165.95

    Newcomers to the field of inertial confinement fusion (ICF) often have difficulty establishing a clear picture of the overall field. The reason for this is because, while there are many books devoted to special topics within the field, there is none that provides an overview of the field as a whole. An Introduction to Inertial Confinement Fusion fills... more...

  • Fusionby Garry McCracken; Peter Stott

    Elsevier Science 2005; US$ 58.95

    Unraveling the role of fusion in the universe has taken almost a century since Einstein's proof of the equivalence of energy and matter in 1905. The discovery that fusion reactions are responsible for the building of the light elements in the "Big Bang" and the subsequent development of the heavier elements in the stars and in exploding supernovae... more...

  • Sun in a Bottleby Charles Seife

    Penguin Group Inc. 2008; US$ 16.00

    With his knack for translating science into understandable, anecdotal prose and his trademark dry humor, award-winning science writer Charles Seife presents the first narrative account of the history of fusion for general readers in more than a decade. Tracing the story from its beginning into the twenty-first century, Sun in a Bottle reveals fusion?s... more...

  • Investigations of Field Dynamics in Laser Plasmas with Proton Imagingby Thomas Sokollik

    Springer 2011; US$ 99.99

    Laser-driven proton beams are still in their infancy but already have some outstanding attributes compared to those produced in conventional accelerators. One such attribute is the typically low beam emittance. This allows excellent resolution in imaging applications like proton radiography. This thesis describes a novel imaging technique - the proton... more...

  • The Release of Thermonuclear Energy by Inertial Confinementby Friedwardt Winterberg

    World Scientific Publishing Company 2010; US$ 182.00

    This is a comprehensive book which describes the three essential parts of what is known as 'Inertial Confinement Fusion': the way thermonuclear burn takes place in non-magnetized, magnetized and fusion-fission hybrid assemblies; the pulse power ignition technology (nuclear, electrical, optical and chemical); and, the applications of inertial... more...

  • Fun in Fusion Researchby John Sheffield

    Elsevier Science 2013; US$ 69.95

    This book discusses the fun side of the quest to develop fusion energy-a modern equivalent of the hunt for the Holy Grail. After more than 70 years of research, despite great progress, the goal has not been realized. Do you have to be crazy to love quests like this? Not really, but you do have to have an unshakeable optimism. Through humorous anecdotes,... more...

  • The Science of the Cold Fusion Phenomenonby Hideo Kozima

    Elsevier Science 2006; US$ 215.00

    Broken up in to three sections, this book gives a unified explanation of all the significant data on the Cold Fusion Phenomena to date. It presents a history of the Cold Fusion Phenomenon (CFP), gives the fundamental experimental results of the CFP and presents a quantum mechanical treatment of physical problems associated with cold fusion. * Overviews... more...

  • Plasma Physics and Fusion Energyby Jeffrey P. Freidberg

    Cambridge University Press 2007; US$ 72.00

    Graduate textbook on plasma physics for courses in applied physics and nuclear engineering. more...

  • Edward Teller Lecturesby Heinrich Hora; George H Miley

    World Scientific Publishing Company 2005; US$ 95.00

    How to achieve unlimited, safe, clean and low-cost energy by laser- or beam-driven inertial nuclear fusion has preoccupied all winners of the Edward Teller Medal since its inception in 1991. This book presents their findings, meeting discussions, and personal insights from Edward Teller himself. Expect discussion of important advances anticipated in... more...
