Why don't you give exact delivery time?
Delivery time is estimated on our previous experiences. We give estimations only, because we order from outside Hungary, and the delivery time mainly depends on how quickly the publisher supplies the book. Faster or slower deliveries both happen, but we do our best to supply as quickly as possible.

Short description:
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.
