Using the Super Proton Synchrotron, the team created beams of electron-positron pairs and passed them through a meter-long region of plasma. This setup served as a scaled laboratory version of a ...

Experiments at China's Experimental Advanced Superconducting Tokamak have confirmed the existence of "a density-free region" of the tokamak, finding a method to break through the density limit and ...

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 ...

National Geographic Explorer Paolo Verzone provides a rare peek inside a stellarator, an experiment that aims to give the world near-limitless clean energy. When in operation, this space inside the ...

The Large Helical Device (LHD) represents a forefront instrument in fusion research, utilising a superconducting helical configuration to generate and confine high-temperature deuterium plasmas. Its ...

Supermassive black holes have been known to belch gigantic beams of plasma into space – and now scientists have managed to recreate these fireballs in a lab at CERN. Although black holes are famous ...
