All of this is done using language that is simple and understandable, and at the same time this book does not try to deceive the reader, as materials of this nature often do, but uses exact physical formulas where they are needed. This book serves as an invaluable reference for physics teachers and should inspire high school students to study physics. Many of them will very likely be able to understand that riveting events and phenomena lie behind those very same formulas that just yesterday seemed so boring. This is an excellent and unique way of easily submerging oneself into the world of science and a non-stop intellectual challenge that lures the reader in much more than any game of chess.

It also presents the state of the art of the theory of wave turbulence in diverse media for researchers looking for a formalism to solve existing problems or for new research subjects and ideas. The book provides a general theory of developed wave turbulence in different media: plasmas, solids, atmosphere, oceans and space. The presentation starts with a simple and intuitive dimensional analysis and proceeds to a rigorous analytic theory with exact solutions for the stationary spectra of turbulence, stability theory of such spectra, description of nonstationary regimes and matching spectra with pumping and dissipation regions. The reader is provided with the necessary tools to study nonlinear waves and turbulence: Hamiltonian formalism, statistical description, derivation of kinetics equations and methods of finding their steady and non-steady solutions. In this second edition the book is brought up to date both in theoretical and experimental/observational aspects. In particular, the authors have updated and revised the description of nonstationary turbulence, turbulent entropy production, etc, and added discussions of master equation and several cases of strong turbulence and nonlocal cascades. The book now includes excercises, some with solutions.Graduate Texts in Physics,1868-4521Mathematical physicsPlasma turbulenceAstrophysicsGeophysicsFluid mechanicsSystem theoryTheoretical, Mathematical and Computational PhysicsTurbulence in plasmasAstrophysicsGeophysicsEngineering Fluid DynamicsComplex SystemsMathematical physics.Plasma turbulence.Astrophysics.Geophysics.Fluid mechanics.System theory.Theoretical, Mathematical and Computational Physics.Turbulence in plasmas.Astrophysics.Geophysics.Engineering Fluid Dynamics.Complex Systems.530.1Zakharov Vladimirauthttp://id.loc.gov/vocabulary/relators/aut1802837Lvov Victorauthttp://id.loc.gov/vocabulary/relators/autFalkovich Gregoryauthttp://id.loc.gov/vocabulary/relators/autMiAaPQMiAaPQMiAaPQBOOK9910992792003321Kolmogorov-Zakharov Spectra of Turbulence4349112UNINA
