Editorial overview Touché

Nuclear Fusion by Keishiro Niu, published by Cambridge University Press on June 18, 2009, is a comprehensive exploration of nuclear fusion research. This reissue, consisting of 256 pages, presents an in-depth examination of the energy challenges facing the near future and the potential of nuclear fusion as a solution. The book is structured into four sections that cover the fundamentals of nuclear fusion, magnetic confinement methods, inertial confinement techniques, and the design of fusion reactors.

Readers will find a strong theoretical foundation throughout the text, focusing on essential areas of plasma physics relevant to understanding the confinement problem. The content is designed to provide insights into the requirements for releasing fusion energy and the methods likely to achieve successful fusion reactions. This edition has been thoroughly revised from its original Japanese publication, ensuring that it meets the needs of an English-speaking audience interested in the scientific and physical principles underlying nuclear fusion.


Official synopsis Publisher

Nuclear Fusion describes the state and ultimate goals of nuclear fusion research. The book concentrates on the energy problem in the near future, the role of nuclear fusion reactions for a solution of the energy problem, the requirements for releasing fusion energy and the methods likely to lead to fusion reactions. The book is organised into four sections. In turn these cover the fundamentals of nuclear fusion, methods of magnetic confinement, methods of innertial confinement and the fusion reactor itself. The book has a strong theoretical content, covering those areas of plasma physics which are necessary for an understanding of the confinement problem. This book was first published in Japanese. This edition in English has been thoroughly revised by Keishiro Niu.
