Researchers in South Korea have solved a long-standing mystery in plasma physics by experimentally demonstrating how tiny magnetic ripples can trigger large-scale structural changes within plasma.
The phenomenon, known as multiscale coupling, was confirmed for the first time by a research team led by Hwang Yong-Seok, PhD, a professor at the Department of Nuclear Engineering at Seoul National University (SNY).
For the study, Hwang and his team, including Park Jong-Yoon, PhD, an assistant professor at the university, and Yoon Young Dae, PhD, a theoretical physicist at the Asia Pacific Center for Theoretical Physics (APCTP), integrated fusion experiments and cosmic plasma theory.
