Scientists have developed a groundbreaking method to track the ultra-fast heat progression in warm, dense matter plasmas ...

In a few picoseconds (trillionths of a second), a small, thin piece of copper momentarily becomes dense plasma, specifically ...

Magnetically confined plasmas are those plasmas that are trapped using magnetic fields. Magnetic fields can prevent high-temperature plasma coming into contact with solid materials that it could ...

A model for dense degenerate plasmas that incorporates electron spin indicates that quantum effects can be seen even under conditions previously considered to be in the classical regime.

Science X is a network of high quality websites with most complete and comprehensive daily coverage of the full sweep of ...

Conducted by JET, the new Deuterium-Tritium experiment provides unique characteristics expected in future fusion reactors.

A team of researchers supported by the U.S. National Science Foundation has developed a new method of tracking the ultra-fast ...

Our team of helio physicists published a paper in August 2024 that points to a new source of energy propelling the solar wind ...

Robert Marshall’s interests and expertise are unquestionably diverse. Spanning small satellite development to lightning-ionosphere interactions, Marshall’s research aims to shed insight on the nature ...

Scientists of the Swedish Institute of Space Physics (IRF) in Kiruna and Umeå University find that under certain conditions ...

Basic tools of kinetic plasma theory, such as the drift kinetic equation and the Coulomb collision operator, are derived, and are then used to calculate classical and neoclassical transport occurring ...
