A new jet engine design may mean that future flights will require no fuel, reducing costs and helping the environment. It ...

"As global warming threatens the future of military and commercial aviation, a Chinese team of researchers with a vision to end fossil fuel dependence is making a big splash in the engineering ...

Recently, the team led by Prof. HUANG Qing from the Hefei Institutes of Physical Science of the Chinese Academy of Sciences proposed using a portable pulsed cold air plasma jet (PP-CAPJ) to treat ...

Plasma accelerators utilise electromagnetic forces to propel ionised gases at high speeds, offering a unique platform to study both controlled laboratory phenomena and astrophysical events. Recent ...

Two research groups design a plasma (an ionized gas) reactor maintained by microwaves that makes it possible to decontaminate waters with high concentrations of dye. Plasma is an ionized gas -- that ...

Using a cold plasma jet to activate hydrogel, researchers have created a dressing with antibacterial and wound-healing properties. The technology could be used as an alternative to current treatments ...
