Abstract:

In Part A of the report the titles of the 12 sessions and the 5 invited lectures are summarized. Concerning the content of the 117 presented papers, mainly the ones dealing with collisionless plasma phenomena are reviewed as for example collisionless plasma heating by strong shock waves, turbulent heating, fluctuation spectrum during turbulent heating of a toroidal plasma, transformation and absorption of high frequency waves in a plasma, observation of anomalous resistivity, etc. Furthermore, an interesting effect concerning the anomalous scattering of laser light from a plasma is reported. The last chapter reviews a panel discussion on Tokamaks. Part B contains the paper Investigation of Instabilities and Collisionless Damping Mechanisms in the Front of a Laser Produced Plasma Interacting with a Magnetic Field.
