In a new study published in Physical Review Letters, scientists have performed the first global simulations of monster shocks ...

Nuclear fusion, the process that powers every star in the observable universe, has moved from theoretical physics into the realm of real laboratory results. On December 5, 2022, scientists achieved ...

In the blink of an eye, the unruly, superheated plasma that drives a fusion reaction can lose its stability and escape the strong magnetic fields confining it within the donut-shaped fusion reactor.

New artificial intelligence models for plasma heating can do more than was previously thought possible, not only increasing the prediction speed 10 million times while preserving accuracy but also ...

Researchers provide experimental data about how radiation travels through dense plasmas. Their data will improve plasma models, which allow scientists to better understand the evolution of stars and ...
