Abhilash Mathews, a PhD candidate in the Department of Nuclear Science and Engineering working at MIT’s Plasma Science and Fusion Center (PSFC), believes this plasma edge to be a particularly rich source of unanswered questions. A turbulent boundary, it is central to understanding plasma ...
At the MIT PSFC, student and staff volunteers work together to increase the public's knowledge of fusion science and plasma technology. Seeking to generate excitement in young people about science and engineering, the PSFC hosts a number of educational outreach activities throughout the year, incl...

Researchers at MIT's Plasma Science and Fusion Center (PSFC) have now demonstrated how microwaves can be used to overcome barriers to steady-state tokamak operation. In experiments performed on MIT's Alcator C-Mod tokamak before it ended operation in September 2016, research scientist Seung Gyou...
The analysis of turbulence in plasmas is fundamental in fusion research. Despite extensive progress in theoretical modeling in the past 15 years, we still lack a complete and consistent understanding of turbulence in magnetic confinement devices, such as tokamaks. Experimental studies are challenging due...
Fortunately, new supercomputer simulations are making it easier to more accurately predict key aspects of plasma behavior. A team of physicists from the University of California at San Diego (UCSD), MIT's Plasma Science and Fusion Center and Princeton Plasma Physics Laboratory (PPPL) ran a series...
The variation of sheath potential with antenna current is also investigated based on the parameters for Alcator C-Mod (the tokamak at the MIT Plasma Science and Fusion Center). Further, a numerical example in a 2D domain whose scale is equivalent to the Alcator C-Mod tokamak is presented in...
A plasma property refers to the characteristics exhibited by a plasma, such as thermal equilibrium, Debye shielding distance, and local thermodynamic equilibrium, which are determined by factors like electron concentration and collision frequency.
