Twelve scientific divisions are investigating confinement of high - temperature hydrogen plasmas in magnetic fields, heating of plasmas, plasma diagnostics, magnetic field technology, data acquisition and processing, plasma theory, materials research, plasma - wall interaction, and systems studies.

Not exact matches

That is the force and timing needed, it is thought, to compress the plasma, fuse the hydrogen atoms and heat the surrounding liquid lead to even higher temperatures.

Molecular dynamics studies of electron - ion temperature equilibration in hydrogen plasmas within the coupled - mode regime

Fusion is commonplace in stars, where hydrogen nuclei fuse in superhot plasma, but temperatures that high are hard to achieve on Earth.

This region is made up of hydrogen plasma, a gas of atoms whose electrons have been stripped away by the ferocious temperature, leaving just protons behind.

Meanwhile, fusion researchers in Japan and the United States have produced temperatures above 900 million ° F in plasmas of deuterium and tritium, which are isotopes of hydrogen.

Under laboratory conditions it is the two hydrogen isotopes — deuterium and tritium — that fuse most readily when held as a plasma at temperatures of several hundred million degrees.

These fields will do double duty: They will heat a cloud of hydrogen to the searing temperature required for fusion while forcing the resulting plasma to sit in a ring - shaped cloud away from the tokamak's walls.

The solution Boyd hit upon was to use a system first developed in the 1960s to generate a hydrogen plasma — that is, hydrogen gas that has been electrified to separate the electrons from the protons — to remove the copper oxide at much lower temperatures.

The extremely high temperatures — hundreds of millions of degrees Celsius — cause fusion to occur between hydrogen atoms in the plasma, releasing tons of energy.

Through the process of fusion, which is constantly occurring in the sun and other stars, energy is created when the nuclei of two lightweight atoms, such as those of hydrogen, combine in plasma at very high temperatures.

You can heat oxygen, hydrogen, nitrogen, Bombay Gin or anything else, to any temperature at all, short of plasma conversion or similar.
