Nuclear fusion energy-mankind's giant step forward by Lee, S., Saw, S. H.

“…What is needed is a giant step—the development of a new, limitless, clean source of energy—nuclear fusion energy. Nuclear fusion technology, when perfected to fusion-burn only deuterium, will have a fuel supply lasting millions of year, even with continuing energy consumption growth as in the past. …”

The plasma focus-trending into the future by Lee, S., Saw, S. H.

“…The plasma focus is a promising small-scale alternative to the huge Tokamak project in the development of nuclear fusion energy. Its strength lies in the characteristic that the plasma condition is the same whether the plasma focus is a small sub-kilojoule machine or a large one with thousands of kilojoules of stored energy and the related constancy of the dynamic resistance. …”

The fully relativistic implementation of the convergent close-coupling method by Bostock, Christopher

“…Within the veil of plasma physics lie important research areas affiliated with the lighting industry, nuclear fusion and astrophysics. For high energy projectiles or targets with a large atomic number it is presently understood that a scattering formalism based on the Dirac equation is required to incorporate relativistic effects. …”

IL-15 promotes human myogenesis and mitigates the detrimental effects of TNFα on myotube development by O’Leary, Mary F., Wallace, Graham R., Bennett, Andrew J., Tsintzas, Kostas, Jones, Simon W.

“…Co-incubation of differentiating myoblasts with rIL-15 and rTNFα, limited the reduction in MTT and nuclear fusion index (NFI) associated with rTNFα stimulation alone. …”

Simulation and Design of Biological Shield for the 115 kJ IR-MPF-100 Plasma Focus Device Using MCNP Code by Babaei, Morteza, Sadighzadeh, Asghar, Kiashemshaki, Maryam, Vosoghi, Sara, Zaeem, Alireza Asle, Kasesaz, Yaser, Rezaeifard, Behzad, Damideh, Vahid

“…The paper reports on the design of biological neutron shielding for IR-MPF100 plasma focus device which recently has been designed and constructed in plasma physics and nuclear fusion research institute. Plasma focus devices are known as pulsed intense sources of ionizing radiations such as hard X-ray and fast neutrons as a result of the formation of a hot dense plasma column then acceleration of energetic ions and electrons in the opposite directions. …”

H-ATLAS/GAMA: quantifying the morphological evolution of the galaxy population using cosmic calorimetry by Eales, Stephen, Fullard, Andrew, Allen, Matthew, Smith, M.W.L., Baldry, Ivan, Bourne, Nathan, Clark, C.J.R., Driver, Simon, Dunne, Loretta, Dye, S., Graham, Alister W., Ibar, Edo, Hopkins, Andrew, Ivison, Rob, Kelvin, Lee S., Maddox, Steve, Maraston, Claudia, Robotham, Aaron S.G., Smith, Dan, Taylor, Edward N., Valiante, Elisabetta, Werf, Paul van der, Baes, Maarten, Brough, Sarah, Clements, David, Cooray, Asantha, Gomez, Haley, Loveday, Jon, Phillipps, Steven, Scott, Douglas, Serjeant, Steve

“…The extragalactic background radiation contains all the energy generated by nuclear fusion in stars since the big bang. By resolving this background radiation into individual galaxies using the deepest far-infrared survey with the Herschel Space Observatory and a deep near-infrared/optical survey with the Hubble Space Telescope (HST), and using measurements of the Sérsic index of these galaxies derived from the HST images, we estimate that ≃83 per cent of the stellar mass-density formed over the history of the Universe occurred in LTGs. …”

Comparative Study of Fast Focus Mode and Slow Focus Mode in Plasma Focus Devices by Damideh, Vahid

“…These results may be used to predict different applications of both modes: especially in the fields of nuclear fusion reactor first wall materials and its related investigations by time-matched FFM; and thin film nano-material synthesis by diameter-optimized SFM. …”
