Plasma, also known as the 'fourth state of matter', is common in the universe: more than 90% of the baryonic matter in the universe is believed to be in the plasma state. This course introduces the basic plasma physics: the concept of plasmas, the theories describing it, and some of its unique phenomena. We also aim to facilitate the students with some common problem-solving skills, both analytically and numerically. Finally, we will cover their applications in solar physics, astrophysics, nuclear fusion reactors, industry, and daily life
