About this book
Reviews
From the reviews:
“This book presents quantum-statistical, self-consistent field models and methods … appropriate to describe e.g. plasmas and astrophysical phenomena. … Numerous special approximations for various problems are presented and supported by sample calculations using modern computer software programs … and richly illustrated by plots and tables, and are also compared with experimental results. The present work is of a very high technical standard and aimed at specialists and advanced students working in the field of non-ideal plasmas.” (R. Steinbauer, Monatshefte für Mathematik, Vol. 152 (4), December, 2007)
