The Princeton Plasma Physics Laboratory (PPPL) has launched a computing platform titled Simulation, Technology, ...

Terahertz (THz) radiation, situated between the microwave and infrared regions of the electromagnetic spectrum, has emerged as a pivotal tool in plasma physics research. The generation of intense, ...

Plasma has long been treated as an exotic laboratory curiosity, yet a new world-first result is forcing scientists to look at this fiery state of matter as something far more familiar. By uncovering a ...

Plasma science and technology are undergoing a period of significant growth, supported by advances in plasma sources, high-precision diagnostics, modelling capabilities, and computational tools.

What if the next new theory of the universe didn’t come from a human mind, but from an artificial one? In a development that has left the scientific community both awestruck and unsettled, artificial ...

A research group has achieved a new plasma confinement regime using small 3D magnetic perturbations that simultaneously ...

The Princeton Plasma Physics Laboratory (PPPL), roughly 4 miles out from campus, is a national lab run by the Department of Energy and yet remains a relatively elusive branch of Princeton’s research ...

Magnetised plasma dynamics and laser interactions represent a dynamic field at the intersection of plasma physics and high-energy laser technology. Researchers utilise intense laser pulses to generate ...

At the Columbia Plasma Physics Lab, researchers are tackling one of the most pressing challenges in creating clean energy: making nuclear fusion a viable power source. Unlike nuclear fission—the type ...

At 4 a.m., while most of New Jersey slept, a Princeton Plasma Physics Laboratory (PPPL) physicist sat at his computer connected to a control room 3,500 miles away in Oxford, England. Years of ...
