A new plasma framework reframes ignition, sustainment, and degradation, redefining energy behavior for next-generation ...

Microwave plasma dynamics encompasses the study of ionised gases generated by high frequency electromagnetic fields and their complex interactions with the surrounding medium. At the heart of this ...

Plasma accelerators utilise electromagnetic forces to propel ionised gases at high speeds, offering a unique platform to study both controlled laboratory phenomena and astrophysical events. Recent ...

Fusion energy promises a future of clean, nearly limitless power, but building reactors that can survive the extreme ...

Schematic of THz near-field microscopy based on an air-plasma dynamic aperture. Two femtosecond laser pulses were focused in mutually perpendicular directions to generate two air-plasmas (Plasma1 and ...

When a gas is highly energized, its electrons get torn from the parent atoms, resulting in a plasma—the oft-forgotten fourth state of matter (along with solid, liquid, and gas). When we think of ...

Although the idea of containing a plasma within a magnetic field seems straightforward at first, plasmas are highly dynamic systems that will happily escape magnetic confinement if given half a chance ...

Plasma, the electrically charged state of matter that lights up stars and neon signs, has just revealed a subtle effect that had never been directly seen before, yet appears to be woven through much ...

Deposition of many important materials such as semi-conductors is performed using energetic jets under low pressure conditions. In addition, materials that have been deposited, such as silicon, are ...

The Cold Plasma Market is emerging as one of the most innovative segments within advanced material processing, healthcare ...
