Instead of a tempest in a teapot, imagine the cosmos in a canister. Scientists have performed experiments using nested, ...

Breakthroughs from two rival experiments, Germany’s Wendelstein 7-X and the Joint European Torus, suggest the elusive dream ...

Plasma physics is the study of a state of matter comprising charged particles. Plasmas are usually created by heating a gas until the electrons become detached from their parent atom or molecule ...

Chang, who passed away at age 83 on June 21, will be remembered for his scientific innovation and commitment to educating the ...

When asked what propelled him to success, recent Kennesaw State University graduate Micah Holston cited the influence of his ...

The conference was hosted by Princeton’s CITP, the NJ AI Hub, the State of New Jersey, the National Governors Association, ...

Scientists can now snap ultra-powerful laser pulses in one shot. RAVEN reveals distortions instantly, unlocking breakthroughs ...

Princeton Plasma Physics Lab debuts FLARE, a unique device to advance magnetic reconnection and plasma physics research.

Plasma—the electrically charged fourth state of matter—is at the heart of many important industrial processes, including those used to make computer chips and coat materials.

Essentially, the helicity "barrier" alters turbulent dissipation, changing how fluctuations dissipate and how the plasma is heated. The team has now analyzed data from the Parker Solar Probe, and it ...

As the name suggests, plasma physics concerns the physical properties of plasmas. With increasing temperature, all materials are transformed successively from the solid, to liquid and then gaseous ...
