Vision Introductory Lectures: A vision of the Frontier Research Fields covered in INFIERI2023
- Steinar Stapnes (CERN)
Description
Masterclasses ("theoretical hands-on Labs" ) are prepared for each topic presented in the Introductory Vision Lectures, in order to deepen the knowledge on these subjects (see INFIERI2023-Labs Booklett)
At the time where several programs both on Space (with new Space telescopes) and on Earth (with largest terrestrial observatories) are prepared or being launched, an exciting period is opened for crucial advances in the exploration of the Universe and understanding of crucial aspects such as indeed the Dark Energy and Dark Matter.

Abstract: In this introductory lecture, fundamental aspects of plasma physics will be developed, such as plasma occurrence in Nature and in the lab, quasi-neutrality, Debye shielding, electron plasma oscillations, and Alfvén waves. Particle orbits in magnetic fields will be explored in view of magnetic containment of plasmas and applications of plasmas in industry and medicine will be...
