This book addresses hybrid simulation of plasmas; it is aimed at developing insight into the essence of plasma behavior. Major current applications are to astrophysical and space plasmas. Some applications are connected with active experiments in space. However, hybrid simulations are also being used to gain an understanding of basic plasma phenomena such as particle acceleration by shocks, magnetic field reconnect ion in neutral current sheets, generation of waves by beams, mass loading of the supersonic flow by heavy pickup ions and the dynamics of tangential discontinuities. Such simulations may be very important not only for the study of the ... Read more

Reviews for The Hybrid Multiscale Simulation Technology. An Introduction with Application to Astrophysical and Laboratory Plasmas.
From the reviews: "This book provides a very useful guide for researchers as well as graduate students in the field of plasma numerical modelization, primarily by hybrid methods that treat some aspects of the plasma dynamics kinematically and some others as fluids. The vast literature on the subject is summarized in a way that can rapidly be exploited ... Read more
