Scientists had theorized about the possibility of a plasma physics phenomenon, but their AI system discovered the real thing.

Physicists have used a machine-learning method to identify surprising new twists on the non-reciprocal forces governing a ...

Energetic (suprathermal) particles constitute an essential source of momentum and energy, especially in future burning plasmas. They must be well confined to guarantee a self-sustaining fusion ...

The notion originated in the 1970s with John M. Dawson of the University of California, Los Angeles, who proposed using a plasma wake produced by an intense laser pulse or a bunch of electrons to ...

This has been difficult to study, however, because plasma moves erratically and unpredictably, so it's been a mystery as to how and when high-energy particles are generated.

Here, in addition to newly developing a calculation program by utilizing the Plasma Simulator's capacity, they also were able to calculate the movements of one billion particles.

A Plasma Tube to Keep Speedy Particles on Track In plasma wakefield acceleration, energetic bundles of electrons or positrons traverse a plasma and generate plasma "wakes" for trailing bunches of ...

The inclusion of neutral particles also leads to reduced plasma fluctuations and slower blob motion. This result required a first-of-its-kind coupling between existing methods of simulating plasmas.

Scientists Are Creating Plasma So Hot, It May Melt the Current Rules of Reality This is what happens when you smash atoms in conditions even protons and neutrons can’t stand up to.
