Plasma accelerators utilise electromagnetic forces to propel ionised gases at high speeds, offering a unique platform to study both controlled laboratory phenomena and astrophysical events. Recent ...
Researchers from South Korea have provided experimental proof of ‘multi-scale coupling’ in plasma. The study demonstrates how microscopic events can cause large-scale changes in this state of matter.
With Cluster data, scientists now have evidence that solar outbursts can generate conditions that slingshot matter in Earth’s magnetic environment to speeds higher than 1000 km/s. The outburst ...
For the first time, the Tibet ASγ Experiment has successfully measured magnetohydrodynamic (MHD) turbulence on scales below one parsec (approximately 3.3 light-years) within the gamma-ray halo ...
