Program Overview

The Master’s program in Plasma Physics offers high-level training, covering a very broad field of Physics, and providing strong adaptability compatible with the current evolution of research and industrial development activities.

Plasma physics integrates knowledge from many other branches of physics, such as statistical physics, Hamiltonian mechanics, surface physics, relativistic electrodynamics, fluid dynamics, atomic and molecular physics, and radiation physics.

Conversely, many concepts and methods—particularly in nonlinear physics, chaos, and turbulence—developed in fundamental plasma physics research have been adopted by other disciplines.
