Laser-produced plasmas have been used to create short bursts of x-rays and to accelerate particles — so-called plasma-based accelerators. Laser produced plasmas are also useful for recreating ...

So what's a television set got to do with the National Park Service? Well, for the price of a helluva new TV, say around $5,000 for a really, really big LCD or plasma set, the agency could move ...

However, it’s not as easy as it sounds. For a fusion reaction, plasma is required to be heated to hundreds of millions of degrees Celsius — this is seven to eight times more than the ...

Heating plasma to the ultra-high temperatures needed for fusion reactions requires more than turning the dial on a thermostat. Scientists consider multiple methods, one of which involves injecting ...

The smallest device, measuring only 0.01 mm2, was found to reach an efficiency of 21.40%. “These cells were not manufactured for their performance but to demonstrate the capabilities of plasma ...

Scientists would like to track electrical activity in the ionosphere by measuring the distribution of plasma, the form matter takes when positive ions are separated from their electrons ...
