Professor Claudia Ratti explains about quarks and gluons, including the so-called Quark-Gluon Plasma, plus Quantum ...

The WEST tokamak just broke the record for retaining hot fusion plasma, holding on to it for ... a tokamak is like harnessing the power of a star. Stars run on nuclear fusion, fusing hydrogen ...

If the star is surrounded by a plasma, the shock front will essentially propagate in a collisionless manner. The electrons within the plasma itself will be pushed forward at a speed that ...

Achieving this performance means that the plasma must retain ... High-temperature superconducting magnets made from REBCO, an acronym for rare-earth barium copper oxide, make it possible to create ...

The Sun periodically ejects huge bubbles of plasma from its surface that contain an intense magnetic field. These events are called coronal mass ejections, or CMEs. When two of these ejections ...

The end goal is to control the plasma, which is naturally unstable, while ensuring that all plasma-facing components are able to withstand its radiation without malfunctioning or polluting it.

Feb. 18, 2025 — French research organization CEA reported that on 12 February, the CEA’s WEST tokamak maintained a nuclear fusion plasma for more than 22 minutes, a 25 percent improvement over the ...

In this sharp, deadpan satire of fame and expectation, David, a former football star, finds himself in freefall ... The challenge wasn’t just to create a cartoon, but to discover the right ...

Giancarlo Stanton will return to New York for a third round of platelet-rich plasma injections in his ... Boone was quoted as saying the five-time All-Star is not likely to play in any exhibition ...

The study introduces new tools for measuring the intracellular calcium concentration close to transmitter release sites, which may be relevant for synaptic vesicle fusion and replenishment. This ...
