This proceedings volume includes the most recent research advances in the application of RF power in plasmas, mainly in fusion science. Most papers deal with plasma heating and current drive, profile control, and stabilization using RF techniques, with some on RF sources and launchers. New and exciting results from all major tokamak experiments, and from theory and modeling are included. There is also a paper on RFplasma application in space propulsion by an active NASA astronaut. This book is a valuable reference for the RF researchers in fusion and other disciplines.

The 12th Joint Workshop on Electron Cyclotron Emission and Electron Cyclotron Resonance Heating (EC-12) was held in Aix-en-Provence (France) from May 13 to 16, 2002. This workshop was concerned with the interaction of electromagnetic waves and hot plasmas, a subject of great importance in the framework of research on controlled thermonuclear fusion. Using as a fuel a mixture of deuterium and tritium, which can be extracted from sea water, this is a very promising way to develop an intrinsically safe reactor. The workshop gathered approximately one hundred specialists in the production, use and theory of millimetre waves for heating and diagnostics of fusion plasmas.

In these proceedings of the April 2005 conference participants describe their current research in the theories, computations, and applications of radio frequency power in plasmas for fusion, space propulsion and material processing. Many of the papers describe solutions in tokamak geometries where phenomena to be modeled ranged from mm to tens of centimeters and self-consistent models of energetic particles and waves, with about half the papers describing work in ion cyclotron range of frequencies (ICRF). Other topics include lower hybrid ranges of frequencies, electron Bernstein ranges of frequencies, electron cyclotron ranges of frequencies and RF plasma applications.
