Nonlocal transport in hot plasma. Part II

The second part of the review, the first part of which was published earlier in Plasma Phys. Rep. 39, 698 (2013), is presented. A wide range of electromagnetic phenomena in laser plasma under nonlocal transport conditions requiring kinetic consideration are described. Among them, there are nonlocal transport in magnetized plasma, absorption and penetration of laser radiation in dense plasma, nonlocal effects related to inverse-bremsstrahlung heating and ponderomotive interaction, plasma fluctuations caused by a speckled laser beam, propagation of laser radiation and parametric instabilities in low-density plasma, and ion-acoustic instability of the return current. Many results are applicable for arbitrary relations between the characteristic spatial and time scales of the plasma parameters, which substantially advances the concept of laser-plasma interaction in hot plasma as compared to the conventional theories of collisionless and strongly collisional plasmas.
