... SUMMARY OF TOPICAL AREAS As described in the preface, the panel was charged with assessing specific topical areas of plasma science: low-temperature plasmas; nonneutral plasmas; inertial and magnetic confinement fusion; beams, accelerators, and coherent radiation sources; and space and astrophysical plasmas. This section contains an overview of these assessments.
