Laser-produced plasmas have been used to create short bursts of x-rays and to accelerate particles — so-called plasma-based accelerators. Laser produced plasmas are also useful for recreating ...

However, it’s not as easy as it sounds. For a fusion reaction, plasma is required to be heated to hundreds of millions of degrees Celsius — this is seven to eight times more than the ...

Heating plasma to the ultra-high temperatures needed for fusion reactions requires more than turning the dial on a thermostat. Scientists consider multiple methods, one of which involves injecting ...

Using a blood pressure chart by age can help you interpret your results to see how they compare to the normal ranges across groups, and within your own age cohort. A chart can help as you monitor your ...

Scientists would like to track electrical activity in the ionosphere by measuring the distribution of plasma, the form matter takes when positive ions are separated from their electrons ...

Blood in urine (hematuria) in males has many causes, including an enlarged prostate, urinary tract infection, kidney stones, and injury. Hematuria may be visible to the naked eye or only be detected ...

The inhibition of dietary starch-digesting enzymes (α-amylase and α-glucosidase) is a well-established strategy for determining the ability of food products to lower postprandial blood glucose ...

Blood Cancer Discovery provides a critical outlet for high-impact basic, translational, and clinical research on all disease subtypes of leukemia, lymphoma, myeloma, and associated diseases. Read More ...
