‘Reviews of Plasma Physics Volume 24’ , edited by V.D. Shafranov, presents two reviews from the cutting-edge of Russian plasma physics research. The first review by V.A. Rozhansky devoted to the mechanisms of transverse conductivity and generation of self-consistent electric fields in strongly ionized magnetized plasma. The second review by O.G. Bakunin considers numerous aspects of turbulent transport in plasma and fluids. This review is focused on scaling arguments for describing anomalous diffusion in the presence of complex structures.These topics are especially important for fusion plasma research, plasma astrophysics, discharge physics, and turbulence. Presents selected topics of plasma physics in highly ionized plasmas. Topics are also important for nuclear fusion research. Summarizes the current Russian state of the art. Gives useful information to researchers and graduate students INDICE: From the contents Mechanisms of transverse conductivity and generation of self-consistent electric fields in strongly ionized magnetized plasma:Introduction. Conductivity tensor in partially ionized plasma. Main mechanisms of perpendicular conductivity in fully ionized plasma. Acceleration of plasma clouds in an inhomogeneous magnetic field. Alfven conductivity. Perpendicular viscosity, radial current, and radial electric field in an infinite cylinder. Current systems in front of a biased electrode (flush-mounted probe) and spot of emission. Currents in the vicinity of a biased electrode that is smaller than the ion gyroradius.
