Kunioki Mima (Japanese: 三間圀興, Hepburn: Mima Kunioki, born 17 August 1945) is a Japanese plasma physicist. He is known for his contributions to the theory of turbulent transport in plasmas,[1][2][3] and in particular the derivation of the Hasegawa–Mima equation in 1977,[4] which won him the 2011 Hannes Alfvén Prize.[5]
