The research team of the State Key Laboratory of Precision Spectroscopy at East China Normal University has made significant progress in the field of ultra-fast laser-induced breakdown ...
Scientists have created plasmas with fusion-suitable densities, using microwave power with low frequency. The research team has identified three important steps in the plasma production: lightning ...
This is the alluring potential of an up-and-coming technology called plasma wakefield acceleration. Let’s break down the name. “Plasma” is often referred to as the “fourth state of matter.” It’s ...
DOE/Princeton Plasma Physics Laboratory Summary: Article describes analytical confirmation that transient CHI, a novel device for starting up fusion plasmas, can achieve startup in future compact ...
To capture and control on Earth the fusion reactions that drive the sun and stars, researchers must first turn room-temperature gas into the hot, charged plasma that fuels the reactions. At the U ...
Plasma-grating-induced breakdown spectroscopy (GIBS) could surmount the limitations of FIBS. However, efficient laser ablation in liquid has remained a great challenge because plasma excitations are ...
Plasma wind is created by applying an alternating or pulsed current to electrodes to produce “a dynamically changing electric field,” says Steve Wilkinson, an aerodynamicist at NASA Langley ...
Groele described his vision for the future of Fourth State, which features both mobile treatment trailers and permanent installations. He said plasma water treatment processes might eventually replace ...
