Department of Energy Announces $8.3 Million for Research on High Energy Density Plasmas
Today, the Department of Energy’s Office of Science (SC) and DOE’s National Nuclear Security Administration (NNSA) announced $8.3 million for 20 research projects in High-Energy Density Laboratory Plasmas (HEDLP).
A roadmap for deepening understanding of a puzzling universal process
Scientists at the Princeton Plasma Physics Laboratory have detailed a roadmap for untangling a key aspect of magnetic recognition that could deepen insight into the workings of the cosmos.
3D simulations improve understanding of energetic-particle radiation and help protect space assets
A team of researchers used 3D particle simulations to model the acceleration of ions and electrons in a physical process called magnetic reconnection. The results could contribute to the understanding and forecasting of energetic particles released during magnetic reconnection, which could help protect space assets and advance space exploration.
Space weather and solar blobs
Scientists at PPPL have been awarded three grants from NASA totaling over $2 million to conduct research that could help predict the potentially damaging effects of blasts of subatomic particles from the sun.
New computer model helps brings the sun into the laboratory
Every day, the sun ejects large amounts of a hot particle soup known as plasma toward Earth where it can disrupt telecommunications satellites and damage electrical grids. Now, scientists have made a discovery that could lead to better predictions of this space weather.
Scientists find clues to a process occurring throughout the universe that affects fusion energy
New research reveals a surprising insight into the physics behind magnetic reconnection. The findings could lead to a greater ability to predict space weather.
Celebrating the past, present and future of space science
Professor of Physics Paul Cassak is among a select group of scientists tackling grand challenges in space in a new series from the American Geophysical Union.
