New simulations from Princeton Plasma Physics Laboratory suggest that deliberately engineering plasma rotation inside tokamak fusion reactors could dramatically reduce the heat loads that destroy ...

What if the future of clean energy is actually ancient? The Thunderstorm Generator uses plasmoid reactions, sacred geometry, and toroidal plasma physics to reduce engine emissions — reportedly ...

Five independent teams of researchers have reviewed the work and claims made by a group at the National Ignition Facility (NIF) who announced in December 2022 that they had achieved the first ...

Plenty of research happens in labs, at computer stations, in libraries and coffee shops and in fields of many kinds. Some of it must happen far beyond the beaten path. Such is the case if you are a ...

Princeton Plasma Physics Laboratory plans to launch a new AI project, called STELLAR-AI, to lower costs and heighten efficiency for experiments. The program is anticipated to launch in 2027, and is ...

Princeton Plasma Physics Laboratory published a new paper last week, marking significant results from the lab’s artificial intelligence research. In the paper, published in Nature Communications, PPPL ...

At the same time, a current of cold electrons travels toward the heated plasma from the opposite direction. When the two meet, the plasma develops filament-shaped instabilities that SLAC’s facilities ...

Nuclear and plasma physics form complementary pillars in our understanding of the fundamental forces and states of matter. Nuclear physics investigates the structure, dynamics and interactions of ...

Another theory held that the forces between two particles falls off exponentially in direct relationship to the distance between two particles and that the factor by which it drops is not dependent on ...

How much fuel can we add to the fire while still maintaining control? Metaphorically speaking, that's the question one team at the U.S. Department of Energy's Princeton Plasma Physics Laboratory (PPPL ...
