Researchers at SINTEF, one of Europe’s largest independent research organizations, are making significant strides in the ...

Using a newly developed adaptive optics system called Cona, scientists peered through Earth's turbulent air to reveal the sun ...

Then they applied a powerful electric current that melted the ore and created a hydrogen plasma containing a soup of atoms, ions, and electrons. The plasma reduced the ore’s nickel and iron ions ...

This creates a magnetic field to keep the plasma contained in a chamber. You've also got a liquid 'wall' of lithium that's spinning really fast and creating a cavity in the center. The hydrogen ...

Humans may never be able to tame the sun, but hydrogen plasma—making up most of the sun's interior—can be confined in a magnetic field as part of fusion power generation: with a caveat.

According to data from the Hubble and James Webb Space Telescopes, the origins of the free-flying photons in the early cosmic ...

Instead of gravity, the most common approach uses strong superconducting magnets operating at ultracold temperatures to confine the intensely hot hydrogen plasma. The engineering and materials ...

The world’s largest and most powerful superconducting electromagnet is ready to become the pulsing “heart” inside of a massive tokamak nuclear fusion reactor. Developed over 40 years in collaboration ...

Typically, this hydrogen layer is added by exposing the diamond to a hydrogen plasma under high heat. But, much like silicon in standard computer chips, the NV centers can't handle this environment.
