§This§new edition presents the essential theoretical and analytical methods needed to§understand the recent fusion research of tokamak and alternate approaches. The§author describes magnetohydrodynamic and kinetic theories of cold and hot§plasmas in detail. The book covers new important topics for fusion studies such as plasma transport§by drift turbulence, which depend on the magnetic configuration and zonal flows. These are universal phenomena§of microturbulence. They can modify the onset criterion for turbulent transport,§instabilities driven by energetic particles as well as alpha particle§generation and typical plasma models for computer simulation. The fusion§research of tokamaks with various new versions of H modes are explained. The§design concept of ITER, the international tokamak experimental reactor, is§described for inductively driven operations as well as steady-state operations using non-inductive§drives. Alternative approaches of reversed-field pinch and its relaxation§process, stellator including quasi-symmetric system, open-end system of tandem§mirror and inertial confinement are also explained. Newly added and updated§topics in this second edition include zonal flows, various versions of H modes,§and steady-state operations of tokamak, the design§concept of ITER, the§relaxation process of RFP, quasi-symmetric stellator, and tandem mirror. The book§addresses graduate students and researchers in the field of controlled fusion. §§
