Around the world, research is advancing to efficiently confine fusion plasma and harness its immense energy for power ...
Research is being conducted around the world to confine high-temperature plasma in a magnetic field to realize nuclear fusion power generation. The most important issue is maintaining stable ...
Experiments at San Diego's DIII-D National Fusion Facility have demonstrated that a new plasma configuration could help increase the stability of tokamak fusion reactors and inform future designs.
Beneath the Sun's outer shell, a layer of highly ionized, boiling hot gas flows all the way down to 200,000 kilometers below the surface of the star. Temperatures of this plasma can reach up to 45,000 ...
Plasma arc cutting (PAC) is a thermal cutting technique widely used in manufacturing applications such as shipbuilding, ...
Electric (plasma) propulsion devices have been used for applications such as station-keeping and orbit transfer, in place of chemical rockets, because they provide a higher specific impulse. Detailed ...
Blood flows differently than water. Anyone who has ever cut themselves knows that blood flows viscously and rather erratically. The similarity between blood and ketchup is something not only ...
