which is important when developing novel particle and radiation sources. Our research develops field theories into plasma models and explores overlooked aspects of field theories. Lattice-gauge model ...

This helps us improve our understanding of how nuclear fusion reactions occur and how they can be improved. In our bid to transition to clean energy, nuclear fusion is a critical ...

an algorithmic unification of particle-in-cell and continuum methods, S. Vadlamani, S. Parker, Y. Chen and C. Kim, Comp. Phys. Comm., Article in press, (2004). A gyrokinetic ion zero electron inertia ...

General Fusion maintains that during compression, the plasma became approximately 190 times denser than it started, consistent with plasma particle ... were used to model the emergence of ...

When you think of a particle accelerator ... from Lawrence Berkeley National Labs use plain-old VHS tape to make plasma mirrors to do just that. Why VHS tape? Because it’s cheap, flexible ...

Using dual lasers and an advanced gas injection system, researchers at th Lab Laser Accelerator Center (BELLA) accelerated a high-quality electron beam to 10 billion electronvolts (10 GeV) over a ...

consistent with plasma particle confinement time being significantly longer than the compression time. In experimental tests, the magnetic field that provides robust confinement for the hot plasma ...
