The Experimental Advanced Superconducting Tokamak achieved a remarkable scientific milestone by maintaining steady-state high-confinement plasma operation for an impressive 1,066 seconds. Credit: ...

China’s Hefei Institutes of Physical Science has claimed a new world record for maintaining a steady-state high-confinement plasma operation, a feat needed to create a fusion reactor that in theory ...

Here’s how it works. China's "artificial sun" reactor has broken its own world record for maintaining super-hot plasma, marking another milestone in the long road towards near-limitless clean ...

Two new clinics that pay people for their plasma have opened in Fredericton and Saint John, following a location that was established in Moncton in 2017. Plasma makes up more than half of a ...

In a microplasma device, plasma is created by generating a strong electric field between a pair of electrodes—stripping electrons from the atoms and molecules in the space between them.

The development of laser–plasma accelerators began in the early 1980s, inspired by the pioneering work of Tajima and Dawson 1. Key to their operation is the fact that unlike the superconducting ...
