Plasma, the electrically charged state of matter that lights up stars and neon signs, has just revealed a subtle effect that ...

Producing fusion energy requires heating plasma to more than one hundred million degrees and confining it stably with strong ...

Just as in-flight turbulence—irregular disruptions in the airflow—results in a bumpy plane ride, plasma turbulence transports ...

Plasma has long been treated as an exotic laboratory curiosity, yet a new world-first result is forcing scientists to look at ...

In the blink of an eye, the unruly, superheated plasma that drives a fusion reaction can lose its stability and escape the strong magnetic fields confining it within the donut-shaped fusion reactor.

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 ...

Interferometry has become an indispensable diagnostic tool in plasma physics, enabling the precise measurement of electron densities and detailed imaging of plasma behaviour. By utilising the ...

Complex plasmas, including dusty plasmas, represent an enthralling state of matter where micron‐sized particles are immersed within an ionised gas. In these systems, the charged microparticles ...

Researchers discovered heat in fusion reactors doesn't diffuse slowly—it executes an American football-style "long pass." ...
