Nuclear Fusion 75 - Princeton Plasma Physics Laboratory Is Studying Phenomena In The Core Of Tokamak Plasmas Reactors
Scientists trying to duplicate the fusing of plasmas that occurs in stars have to deal with what are referred to as sawtooth instabilities. These are up and down swings in the central pressure and temperature of the plasmas in plasma reactors. When these swings are drawn on a graph, they resemble the teeth of a saw blade.

Nuclear Fusion 74 - Princeton Plasma Physics Laboratory Is Studying Phenomena At The Edge Of Tokamak Plasmas
I have been writing about nuclear fusion research lately. A lot of work is going into understanding in the detail the behavior of clouds of charged particles known as plasmas. One particular area of study is the how the plasma at the edge of the donut shaped chamber inside tokamak fusion reactors behaves. Researchers at the U.S.
