Plasma Physics
Funds the physics of plasma — magnetised, high energy density, low temperature, dusty and ultra-cold — with 25 awards expected.
Plasma physics studies matter whose behaviour is governed by the collective interaction of large numbers of free charged particles. NSF's framing puts the scale of the subject plainly: 99.9% of the visible universe is thought to be plasma.
The sub-areas the programme supports overlap and are listed as such: magnetised plasmas in the laboratory, in space and in astrophysical environments; high ene…
Fundamental principles governing plasma behaviour through collective interaction of free charged particles — magnetised plasmas in laboratory, space and astrophysical settings, high energy density plasmas, low temperature plasmas, dusty, ultra-cold and strongly coupled plasmas, non-neutral plasmas, and intense field-matter interaction.
