High-precision measurement of potential dynamics inside plasma
Nuclear fusion, which operates on the same principle that powers the Sun, is expected to become a sustainable energy source for the future. ...
First precise altitude distribution observation of blue aurora using hyperspectral camera
Auroras: Auroras are natural phenomena where electrons from space collide with Earth's atmosphere (oxygen and nitrogen) and emit light. The various colors — red, green, purple, etc. ...
Discovery of new mechanism concerning plasma confinement performance
Around the world, research is advancing to efficiently confine fusion plasma and harness its immense energy for power generation. ...
Information entropy untangles vortices and flows in turbulent plasmas
Turbulence in nature refers to the complex, time-dependent, and spatially varying fluctuations that develop in fluids such as water, air, and plasma. ...
Development of a Key Component for Laser Fusion
Nippon Electric Glass Co., Ltd. (Head Office: Otsu, Shiga, Japan; President: Akira Kishimoto), Institute of Laser Engineering at Osaka University, National Institute of Fusion Science, and Kyoto University have developed "Glass Faraday Element" as key component of large high-power lasers. ...
Clarifying the mechanism of coupled plasma fluctuations using simulations
In nature, phenomena in which multiple fluctuations occur in a coupled manner are frequently observed. ...
