Sentences with phrase «temperature plasma state»

Not exact matches

The New Calculus Other physicists, meanwhile, are employing string theory methodologies in their study of extreme matter states — from the intensely hot plasmas produced in particle colliders to materials created in laboratories at temperatures close to absolute zero.

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.

Since the operating temperature for fusion is in the hundreds of millions degrees Celsius, hotter than any known material can withstand, engineers found they could contain a plasma — a neutral electrically conductive, high - energy state of matter — at these temperatures using magnetic fields.

It will also focus separately on «targets» — ways of getting the plasma into a stable, contained state — and «drivers» — the systems for delivering energy into the plasma to raise its temperature and density.

The energy released in going from the ground atomic state to a lower energy state comes off as a brilliant emission of light in a high - temperature plasma.

These tiny droplets «flow» in a manner similar to the behavior of the quark - gluon plasma, a state of matter that is a mixture of the sub-atomic particles that makes up protons and neutrons and only exists at extreme temperatures and densities.

At these high temperatures, the electrons are detached from the nuclei of the atoms, in a state of matter called plasma.

The bone - crushing pressures and eyebrow - singing temperatures maintain this water in a plasma state, creating a dense, deadly ocean at the bottom of its atmosphere.
