Overview
This book comprehensively describes the phenomena that occur in liquid dielectrics under the influence of an inhomogeneous pulsed electric field. Written by leading experts in the field, it is the first of its kind to address numerous potential applications such as the technology of high-voltage insulation in pulsed inhomogeneous fields, and applications related to cavitation development in liquid dielectrics, plasma treatment of different materials and plasma medicine dealing with living cells. Liquid Dielectrics in an Inhomogeneous Pulsed Electric Field is intended for a broad audience, from students to engineers and scientists, who are interested in current research questions in electrodynamics and hydrodynamics of liquid dielectrics.

Reviews
The authors present detailed mathematical theory to explain these processes, and link the theory with the physical properties of the liquids. Readers interested in nanosecond breakdown processes in liquids will find this book very interesting and insightful. It provides a very deep technical understanding of the processes involved in dielectric discharge in dielectric liquids under inhomogeneous pulsed electric fields. -- John J.
