Similarly, magnetically confining a “mildly unstable” plasma is fairly easy, but “totally out of control” plasmas are more of a challenge. A good analogy among plasma-physics insiders is that ...

Research in plasma physics is extraordinarily broad, encompassing basic physics of plasmas, fusion sciences, space and astrophysics, beam and accelerator physics, laser-matter interactions, and ...

Welcome to Prof. Yuan Shi's research group. We study magnetized laser-plasma interactions for fusion and photonics, develop quantum computing for high-energy-density systems, and investigate plasma ...

This e-learning book is based on the lectures given at the Joint ICTP-IAEA College on Plasma Physics.The main goal of the college has been to familiarize and train advanced students and young ...

Nuclear and Plasma Physics Time frame: 1 February 2024 - 31 January 2025 ...

Physicists have used a machine-learning method to identify surprising new twists on the non-reciprocal forces governing a many-body system.

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 ...

The researchers at the Max Planck Institute for Plasma Physics want to fetch the Sun's fire to Earth. A future fusion power plant is to produce energy by fusing nuclei of the two heavy hydrogen ...

Mr. Dawson first applied the technique to simulate the physics phenomena of plasma, a gaseous collection of free-moving electrons and ions that makes up 99 percent of the visible universe.

These (often) Fortran-based approaches to plasma physics are at the heart of some of the largest-scale research programs on traditional HPC systems, which means any added efficiency is a big deal in ...
