To operate fusion systems safely and reliably, scientists need to monitor plasma fuel conditions and measure properties like ...

Aurora, one of the fastest supercomputers in the world, is now being used to ...

Fusion energy may be one of the most promising clean power sources of the future—but only if scientists can precisely measure the extreme, fast-moving plasmas that make it possible. A new U.S.

A persistent asymmetry in fusion exhaust has challenged researchers for years. New simulations show that plasma core rotation, working together with cross-field drifts, determines where particles land ...

Munich-based Proxima Fusion has signed an agreement with the Free State of Bavaria, RWE, and Max Planck Institute for Plasma ...

Quantum field theories are powerful tools for particle physics and condensed matter physics but are rarely used in plasma physics. However, in warm-dense regimes, where matter is partially ionized and ...

Proxima Fusion, Europe's fastest-growing fusion energy company, has signed an agreement with the Free State of Bavaria, RWE, and Max Planck Institute for Plasma Physics (IPP) to put the world's first ...

Just like Earth and many other worlds, the Sun has a magnetic field that permeates throughout its interior and emerges far beyond its surface. The field is irregular over the surface, and oftentimes ...

Plasma exists in a mixed form of electrons, positive ions and neutral atoms or molecules and plays an important role in many processes; from astrophysical solar flares to nuclear fusion devices for ...

A mysterious striped signal from the Crab Pulsar may finally be explained by a delicate balance between plasma effects and gravitational lensing.

Plasma populations throughout the universe interact with solid bodies, gases, magnetic fields, electromagnetic radiation, magnetohydrodynamic waves, shock waves, and other plasma populations. These ...
