Stochastic Models of Structural Plasma Turbulence

Five years ago a series of seminars on Stochastic Structures in Plasma Turbulence was initiated by physicists and mathematicians from various academic centers in Russia aimed at the construction of adequate probabilistic models which can explain the departure of the experimental data from the classical theory. This book contains both a selection of most important reviews published in 2003 in the Russian version of the seminar proceedings as well as new papers dealing with recent investigations in plasma physics and financial mathematics. The collection contains papers presenting various viewpoints on structural plasma turbulence.
