"Our work tries systematically to understand the effect of the magnetic field on the oscillating frequencies ... "The magnetic field is amplified to large values during the merger," explained ...

A Department of Energy (DoE) physicist has a new nuclear fusion rocket concept that uses magnetic fields to make thrust ... she said in the statement. Her thruster basically works as a tokamak ...

Since magnetic field lines always form closed loops, the ones inside magnetic nozzles inevitably turn back to the thruster structure. For this reason, the plasma flow has to be detached from the ...

New particles and forces can generate an exotic magnetic field oscillating at its Compton frequency on the nucleus (e.g., xenon), which can be amplified and then detected by this quantum sensor ...

These flares consist of charged atoms and particles called plasma, which are trapped inside powerful magnetic fields where complex interactions take place. For propulsion systems, Ebrahimi is ...

So how do they actually work? Hall thrusters use a magnetic field effect to accelerate ions (charged particles) to high speeds, producing thrust. Here's how it works: a spacecraft's solar panels ...

A research team at Caltech's Jet Propulsion Laboratory, in Pasadena, Calif., has found a way to effectively control this erosion by shaping the engine's magnetic field in a way that shields the ...
