Physics of Plasmas, published by AIP Publishing in cooperation with the APS Division of Plasma Physics, is committed to the publication of original research in all areas of experimental, computational, and theoretical plasma physics. Physics of Plasmas publishes in-depth review manuscripts, forward-looking perspectives, Tutorials on active topics, and Special Topics highlighting new developments. Every year a special issue publishes the invited and review papers from the most recent meeting of the APS Division of Plasma Physics.
This paper presents a “hybrid” approach to direct drive inertial confinement fusion that can exploit a high-energy gas laser with two opposed beams. The target and driver are asymmetric, much like ...
Jean Luis Suazo Betancourt, Naia Butler-Craig et al.
Expected high electron mobility and low resistivity along magnetic field lines—as compared to across magnetic field lines—have led to the assumption, or the reproduction through a solution to the ...
In a radiofrequency (RF) plasma thruster device utilizing a cusp-shaped magnetic field, we investigate the dependence of plasma parameters on operational conditions. Among the conditions, this study ...
Twisting of the spatial structure of eigenmodes by energy fluxes generated due to the spatial channeling (SC)—the fast-ion energy and momentum transfer across the magnetic field by destabilized ...
We present observations of wave steepening and signatures of shock formation during expansion of ultracold neutral plasmas formed with an initial density distribution that is centrally peaked and ...
In contrast to single-ion plasma, multiple-ion-species plasma exhibits new, curious, and large transport effects. On short timescales, where ions exchange momentum, magnetized multi-ion plasma ...

Using the machine learning method, the screening parameter κ and the coupling parameter Γ of two-dimensional (2D) dusty plasma are determined simultaneously purely from position ...
