U.C. San Diego researchers successfully trapped non-neutral plasma using a combination of electric and magnetic fields, forming novel vortex crystals when cooled. This breakthrough may hold the key to creating anti-hydrogen, quantum computing, and advanced atomic clocks.
Researchers used powerful supercomputers to simulate microturbulence in plasma, gaining valuable new physics insights that correlate with experimental trends. The simulations, performed on 400 million particles over 5,000 time-steps, demonstrate the maturity of high-performance scientific computing as a tool for discovery.
