U.S. researchers have used the Frontier exascale supercomputer to train AI models that can simulate magnetized plasma turbulence with unprecedented accuracy. The breakthrough could revolutionize the ...

Plasma, the fourth state of matter, consists of a gas in which electrons are no longer bound to atoms, which allows ...

The distribution function of energetic particles and the time evolution of the frequency spectrum of fluctuations. Initially, the energetic particle distribution function is mountain-like. It slopes ...

At more than one million degrees, the sun's atmosphere—the corona—is incredibly hot; but not everywhere. Time and again, huge ...

The most detailed simulation of the chaotic supersonic plasma that floats across our universe has revealed an intricate map of swirling magnetic fields. Clouds of charged particles, or plasmas, are ...

Researchers have uncovered a previously hidden heating process that helps explain how the atmosphere that surrounds the sun called the "solar corona" can be vastly hotter than the solar surface that ...

Research BackgroundWhen walking through a dense forest, a compass is indispensable for knowing which direction to take, and it works because the Earth ...

Lumartix, a Swiss company specializing in plasma light engine technology, has developed a solar simulator to perform characterization, aging and stabilization tests, with additional light-soaking and ...
