When a gas is highly energized, its electrons get torn from the parent atoms, resulting in a plasma—the oft-forgotten fourth ...

From Curiosity to Career Every great engineer starts with one question: How does this work? For Sergey Macheret, that question ...

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, ...

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 ...

MELVILLE, NEW YORK, Oct. 17, 2022 — AIP Publishing has selected Ian H. Hutchinson, a professor of nuclear science and engineering at Massachusetts Institute of Technology, as the recipient of its 2022 ...

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 ...

Why has plasma processing captured the imagination of bioscientists so strongly and what triggered its rapid rise in popularity? James Tyrrell catches up with Uroš Cvelbar of the Jožef Stefan ...
