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

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 ...

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

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 ...

Plasma physics is the research area devoted to the theoretical, computational, and experimental study of ionized gases in which collective electromagnetic interactions dominate particle dynamics. It ...

The Large Helical Device (LHD) represents a forefront instrument in fusion research, utilising a superconducting helical configuration to generate and confine high-temperature deuterium plasmas. Its ...

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

Nuclear and plasma physics form complementary pillars in our understanding of the fundamental forces and states of matter. Nuclear physics investigates the structure, dynamics and interactions of ...

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

Add Yahoo as a preferred source to see more of our stories on Google. For all the problems AI is causing society, one of its greatest benefits lies in the world of science. A new study focused on the ...

Supermassive black holes have been known to belch gigantic beams of plasma into space – and now scientists have managed to recreate these fireballs in a lab at CERN. Although black holes are famous ...
