Papers from the 59th Annual Meeting of the APS Division of Plasma Physics

Invited papers, review articles, and tutorials from the 59th annual meeting of the APS Division of Plasma Physics held on October 23–27, 2017, in Milwaukee, WI. The meeting brought together researchers (undergraduate students through retirees) from all areas of plasma science. The presentations included five invited review talks, 100 invited talks, and four tutorials. There were 1142 contributed poster presentations and 595 contributed oral presentations. Included among the invited talks were three talks by DPP award winners.
