Electron beam generated plasmas constitute a refined method for producing ionised gases, achieved by directing a high-energy electron beam into a neutral gas. The non-equilibrium ionisation caused by ...

Researchers at Kyoto University have proposed a new physical model that explores how disturbances in the ionosphere may exert electrostatic forces within Earth's crust and potentially contribute to ...

The Princeton Plasma Physics Laboratory (PPPL), roughly 4 miles out from campus, is a national lab run by the Department of Energy and yet remains a relatively elusive branch of Princeton’s research ...

Developed in collaboration with the Max Planck Institute for Plasma Physics specifically for the Wendelstein 7-X stellarator, Thales's TH1507U gyrotron has achieved a significant milestone by reaching ...

Researchers at Princeton Plasma Physics Laboratory found a way to make plasma heating more efficient for fusion. By slightly angling a Faraday screen near the plasma antenna, they stopped unwanted ...

The U.S. Department of Energy’s Princeton Plasma Physics Laboratory is developing a new project which aims to use AI to expedite fusion energy research. Shantenu Jha, the head of PPPL’s Computational ...

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

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 ...

Much of spacecraft engineering is centered on mitigating the risks that come along with that re-entry process, but there’s one particular aspect of it that has remained a challe ...

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 ...
