Nanosecond plasmas are a great tool for targeting specific energy release paths. In this example, the detonation front cell size was significantly reduced by dissociating the oxygen a FEW nanoseconds ahead of the detonation front! I am delighted to share this Combustion and Flame study with you today: https://lnkd.in/ekpCVeMb This work demonstrates that very small changes in the chemical composition of the fresh gas ahead of a detonation can significantly alter the structure of the front. This work was realized in collaboration with my former group from Laboratory of Plasma Physics and Institut Pprime. #Detonation #PlasmaPhysics

Polarized #neutrons can provide unique information on the structure and dynamics of #materials, especially #quantum materials. When conducting spin-echo small-angle neutron scattering experiments it is generally thought that the spin up and spin down components of polarized neutrons coexist in the same spot. However, a recent work strongly suggests that both components are spatially separated (yet entangled) questioning the validity of the conventional Larmor precession model when applied to polarized neutrons. This interesting result was obtained by #SCGSR awardee Samuel McKay in collaboration with Dr. Abu Irfan, Quan Le Thien, Prof. Gerardo Ortiz, and Prof. Roger Pynn of Indiana University Bloomington, Niels Geerits from the Technical University of Vienna, Dr. Steven Parnell from Delft University of Technology, Dr. Robert Dalgliesh from Rutherford Appleton Laboratory, Dr. Nickolay Lavrik, and Dr. Ivan Kravchenko from Oak Ridge National Laboratory.

Scientists at Princeton Plasma Physics Laboratory have devised a groundbreaking experiment that could explain how supermassive black holes shoot out colossal jets of plasma. By using a high-energy laser beam and advanced proton radiography, they observed the magnetic field interacting with plasma in real-time. This interaction suggests that magnetic field lines snapping back into position could be the key to understanding these powerful jets. Could this be a key piece in understanding how active black holes operate?
