1. Some basic concepts, do you familiar with them? * What is plasma?              ** Debye shielding              ** Lorentz transformation        ** plasma frequency              ** plasma parameter    ** diamagnetic effect            ** pitch angle               * Single particle theory    ** guiding center                ** drift                             E × B drift         polarization drift         curvature drift and gradient drift         polarization drift    ** adiabatic invariant               magnetic moment         the bounce invariant         the third invariant    ** magnetic mirrors             * Magnetohydrodynamics (MHD)    ** Ideal MHD                    ** Ideal MHD waves              ** Plasma pressure and magnetic pressure      ** frozen-in and magnetic Reynold number   * Kinetic theory    ** Vlasov equation              ** wave growing and damping      ** Landau damping/resonance      ** Cyclotron resonance         ALL CLEAR? Hen, maybe I give some more questions next time.
