Increasing the surface area when plasma and water interact could help scale up a technology that destroys contaminants such ...

Researchers Ni Guohua and Associate Researcher Sun Hongmei from the Institute of Plasma Physics, together with Associate ...

Reversed field pinch (RFP) plasma physics is a distinctive branch of magnetic confinement research that explores self-organised plasma equilibria in which the toroidal magnetic field reverses in the ...

University of Iowa professors are taking the lead on plasma physics and fusion-energy research. A campus committee has created a strategic plan to advise the Office of Fusion Energy Science with the U ...

Plasma exists in a mixed form of electrons, positive ions and neutral atoms or molecules and plays an important role in many processes; from astrophysical solar flares to nuclear fusion devices for ...

Quantum field theories are powerful tools for particle physics and condensed matter physics but are rarely used in plasma physics. However, in warm-dense regimes, where matter is partially ionized and ...

Two grants from the Department of Energy were recently awarded to professors in the Department of Physics, one to research professor Alla Safronova and another to professor Bruno Bauer. Both ...

Using CERN’s Super Proton Synchrotron, researchers generated plasma fireballs to simulate blazar jets. The beams stayed ...

An educational outreach site maintained by the Princeton Plasma Physics Laboratory in the US, IPPEX features several interactive, game-like tools (applets) for exploring the physics of fusion, the ...

Elizabeth Paul, a groundbreaking physicist who is a 2015 alumna and a 2020 Presidential Postdoctoral Research Fellow at Princeton University and the Princeton Plasma Physics Laboratory (PPPL), has won ...
