  • Frontiers in Plasma Physics Research: a Fifty-Year Perspective from 1958 to 2008-Ronald C
    • At the Forefront of Plasma Physics Publishing for 50 Years - with the launch of Physics of Fluids in 1958, AlP has been publishing ar In« the finest research in plasma physics. By the early 1980s it had St t 5 become apparent that with the total number of plasma physics­ related articles published in the journal- afigure then approaching 5,000 - asecond editor would be needed to oversee contributions in this field. And indeed in 1982 Fred L. Ribe and Andreas Acrivos were tapped to replace the retiring Fran~ois Frenkiel, Physics of Fluids' founding editor. Dr. Ribe assumed the role of editor for the plasma physics component of the journal and Dr. Acrivos took on the fluid Editor Ronald C. Davidson dynamics papers. This was the beginning of an evolution that would see Physics of Fluids Resident Associate Editor split into Physics of Fluids A and B in 1989, and culminate in the launch of Physics of Stewart J. Zweben Plasmas in 1994. Assistant Editor Sandra L. Schmidt Today, Physics of Plasmas continues to deliver forefront research of the very Assistant to the Editor highest quality, with a breadth of coverage no other international journal can match. Pick Laura F. Wright up any issue and you'll discover authoritative coverage in areas including solar flares, thin Board of Associate Editors, 2008 film growth, magnetically and inertially confined plasmas, and so many more. Roderick W. Boswell, Australian National University Now, to commemorate the publication of some of the most authoritative and Jack W. Connor, Culham Laboratory Michael P. Desjarlais, Sandia National groundbreaking papers in plasma physics over the past 50 years, AlP has put together Laboratory this booklet listing many of these noteworthy articles.

  • Plasma Science and Fusion Center
    Plasma Science and Fusion Center Overview MIT’s Plasma Science and Fusion Center (PSFC) is known internationally as a leading university research center for the study of plasma and fusion science and technology with research activities in five major areas: 1. The science of magnetically confined plasmas in the development of fusion energy, in particular the Alcator C-Mod tokamak project. 2. The basic physics of plasmas including magnetic reconnection experiments on the Versatile Toroidal Facility (VTF), plasma-surface interactions, development of novel high-temperature plasma diagnostics, and theoretical plasma physics and fusion science research. 3. The physics of high-energy-density plasmas, including the center’s activity on inertial confinement laser-plasma fusion interactions. 4. The physics of waves and beams (gyrotron and high gradient accelerator research, beam theory development, nonneutral plasmas, and coherent wave generation). 5. A broad program in fusion technology and engineering development that addresses problems in several areas (e.g., magnet systems, superconducting materials, and system studies of fusion reactors), as well as non-fusion-related technology development, mostly in the superconducting magnet area. Administratively, each of these areas constitutes a separate research division. In order of research area above, PSFC’s research divisions are the Alcator Project, Physics Research, High-Energy-Density Physics (HEDP), Waves and Beams, and Fusion Technology and Engineering. Similarly, MIT’s Francis Bitter Magnet Laboratory (FBML) is internationally recognized for its advances in several areas of science and engineering involving high magnetic fields, including research in nuclear magnetic resonance (NMR), electron paramagnetic resonance (EPR), and magnetic resonance imaging (MRI). The lab also is also active in NMR and MRI magnet development and in nanoscience condensed matter physics.
