Scientists are developing a new space propulsion system that uses water as fuel, promising a more sustainable way to explore ...

Treatment with a cold atmospheric plasma reduced the recurrence rate of melanoma tumours after surgery by roughly 50% ...

Through its WET (Water-Based Electric Thrusters) Project, the University of Bologna will be developing a new electric thruster for rockets that is propelled by water being turned into plasma ...

Hall thrusters, a key space technology for missions like SpaceX's Starlink constellation and NASA's Psyche asteroid mission, are high-efficiency electric propulsion devices using plasma technology*.

Arkadia Space will supply 250-newton thrusters designed for the Reaction Control System of the MaiaSpace launcher. “This contract highlights the trust that a company like MaiaSpace places in ...

Using water as fuel to travel through space—this is the challenge of WET – Water-based Electric Thrusters, a new research project under Horizon Europe coordinated by the University of Bologna.

Pulsed field ablation (PFA) is a treatment for atrial fibrillation, an irregular heartbeat disorder that can lead to blood clots in the heart and increase the risk of developing other heart problems.

Over the last several years, it has consistently broken fusion records, and it can now add a new one to its collection: the longest sustained ultra-hot plasma. They kept it going for 1,066 seconds ...

Scientists have developed a method for generating fast, bright proton beams using a high-repetition-rate laser-plasma accelerator. This work, published in Nature Communications, resolves several ...
