  Notes from a series of 13 one hour (or more) lectures on Plasma Physics given
to Ramesh Narayan' research group at the Harvard-Smithsonian Center for
Astrophysics, between January and July 2012.
  Lectures 1 to 5 cover various key Plasma Physics themes. Lectures 6 to 12
mainly go over the Review Paper on "Multidimensional electron beam-plasma
instabilities in the relativistic regime" [\emph{Physics of Plasmas}
\textbf{17}, 120501 (2010)]. Lectures 13 talks about the so-called Biermann
battery and its ability to generate magnetic fields from scratch.
