A persistent mystery, however, has been the structure and makeup of black hole coronas — dynamic plasma regions that are part of the flow of matter into the black holes themselves. Similar to ...

But there are still huge technological challenges to overcome before ... Heating a plasma for fusion research requires megawatts of power. One approach that research tokamaks use to achieve the ...

Plasma physics is the study of a state of matter comprising charged particles. Plasmas are usually created by heating a gas until the electrons become detached from their parent atom or molecule ...

Scientists at the Centre for Energy, Environmental and Technological Research (CIEMAT) and the Plasma & Space Propulsion team at Universidad Carlos III de Madrid (UC3M) may seem to have little in ...

However, to achieve fusion, scientists need to first create and confine a superheated gas, called plasma, within a strong magnetic field. This plasma, which is made up of deuterium and tritium ...

Developed in collaboration with the Max Planck Institute for Plasma Physics specifically for the Wendelstein 7-X stellarator 1, Thales’s TH1507U gyrotron has achieved a significant milestone by ...

Also known as the “vampire facial,” platelet-rich plasma (PRP) has received so much attention that it may seem as if we’ve finally found the fountain of youth. Despite the hoopla, there’s little ...
