Princeton Plasma Physics Laboratory published a new paper last week, marking significant results from the lab’s artificial intelligence research. In the paper, published in Nature Communications, PPPL ...

A domestic research team has uncovered the secrets of the 'multi-scale coupling' phenomenon, which has long been a challenge in plasma research. The study is evaluated to provide clues to solving ...

Plasma—the electrically charged fourth state of matter—is at the heart of many important industrial processes, including those used to make computer chips and coat materials. Simulating those plasmas ...

For decades, the dream of a virtually limitless, clean energy source has hovered just out of reach, more science fiction than ...

MELVILLE, N.Y., Nov. 17, 2025 /PRNewswire/ -- AIP Publishing today announced that Igor Kaganovich of the U.S. Department of ...

US startup Zap Energy has brought fusion energy closer to reality by generating 1.6 GPa plasma pressures inside its FuZE-3 ...

The development of current drive techniques in plasma physics has advanced significantly over recent years, offering promising routes for non-inductive current generation in both experimental and ...

Lawrenceville Plasma Physics (LPP’s) design team has now completed the six-month design phase of the project, finishing design work on the device, the shielding wall and the vacuum chamber. We are now ...

Resistive wall modes (RWMs) represent a class of magnetohydrodynamic (MHD) instabilities that arise in plasmas confined by conducting structures which, owing to finite electrical resistivity, do not ...

Scientists have furthered understanding of a barrier that can prevent doughnut-shaped fusion facilities known as tokamaks from operating at high efficiency by causing vital heat to be lost from them.

Elizabeth Paul, a groundbreaking physicist who is a 2015 alumna and a 2020 Presidential Postdoctoral Research Fellow at Princeton University and the Princeton Plasma Physics Laboratory (PPPL), has won ...
