On the thermodynamic origin of energy principles in plasma physics

Using the methods of non-equilibrium thermodynamics, we show that the energy principles of plasma stability theory have a common thermodynamic origin. A Lyapunov function, which physically has the meaning of an entropy excess, can be unambiguously constructed under the proviso that no circulatory fo...
