Plasma physics is the study of charged particles and fluids interacting with self-consistent electric and magnetic fields. It is a basic research discipline that has many different areas of ...

In the Magnetic Confinement applet, the aim is to keep the plasma within the tokamak cross-section by switching magnets on and off. Additional applets appear in tutorials illustrating basic principles ...

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.

His research focuses on space physics, plasma physics, turbulence theory and computational physics. He is an associate director of the Delaware Space Grant Consortium, coordinating student ...

Scientists had theorized about the possibility of a plasma physics phenomenon, but their AI system discovered the real thing.

A challenge in plasma physics has been to understand multi-scale coupling, a process where particle-level turbulence scales up to affect the entire plasma system.

The story of the generation of physicists involved in the development of a sustainable energy source, controlled fusion, using a method called magnetic confinement.

Some of the original Princeton Plasma Physics Lab group who were on hand for the world-record DT shot posed in the control room in honor of the 20th anniversary in the same spots as the original ...
