The furious exhaust heat generated by a fusing plasma in a commercial-scale reactor may not be as damaging to the vessel's innards as once thought, according to researchers at the U.S. Department of ...
Inside the next generation of fusion vessels known as spherical tokamaks, scientists at the U.S. Department of Energy's Princeton Plasma Physics Laboratory (PPPL) envisioned a hot region with flowing ...
Plasma pinwheel. Beams of plasma pointed inward but slightly off-center generate a rotating plasma ring. The plasma is free to expand up and down. Plasma pinwheel. Beams of plasma pointed inward but ...
Researchers at Princeton Plasma Physics Laboratory found a way to make plasma heating more efficient for fusion. By slightly angling a Faraday screen near the plasma antenna, they stopped unwanted ...
Scientists have observed new details of how plasma interacts with magnetic fields, potentially providing insight into the formation of enormous plasma jets that stretch between the stars. Whether ...
The intricate dance of atoms fusing and releasing energy has fascinated scientists for decades. Now, human ingenuity and artificial intelligence are coming together at the U.S. Department of Energy’s ...
On June 3, a flatbed truck arrived at the front gates of the U.S. Department of Energy’s (DOE) Princeton Plasma Physics Laboratory (PPPL) carrying a piece of machinery that could influence the course ...
New artificial intelligence models developed by researchers at Princeton Plasma Physics Laboratory dramatically improve the speed and accuracy of plasma heating predictions for fusion experiments.
The exchange of energy between plasmas near astrophysical objects and magnetic fields produces some of the most extreme particle acceleration phenomena in the universe, such as black holes and neutron ...
