Using the world's most powerful particle accelerator, the Large Hadron Collider, scientists have found that the quark-gluon ...
A strange, glowing form of matter called dusty plasma turns out to be incredibly sensitive to magnetic fields. Researchers found that even weak fields can change how tiny particles grow, simply by ...
Plasma engines could be the future of human space travel, and Russia’s “manetoplasma rockets” have the most ambitious travel ...
Russia is testing a plasma engine prototype designed to slash Mars travel time to just 60 days. Developed by Rosatom’s ...
In its first moments, the infant universe was a trillion-degree-hot soup of quarks and gluons. These elementary particles ...
Chinese scientists have unveiled a superconducting linear plasma device designed to test materials for nuclear fusion reactors. The Superconducting Plasma Wall Interaction Linear Device (SWORD) boasts ...
The exhaust heat generated by a fusing plasma in a commercial-scale reactor may not be as damaging to the vessel's innards as once thought, according to new research about escaping plasma particles.
Figure 1.LHD and neutral beam arrangement. The magnetic field exists in a clockwise direction. In the realm of fusion research, the control of plasma density, temperature, and heating is crucial for ...
Scientists recreate the early universe to study the first liquid ever formed and uncover how quarks moved through primordial matter.
This still image from a new simulation shows how plasma from the pedestal region is connected through the supposedly last confinement surface into the divertor plasma region. The long and thin lobes ...
