Controller with Integrated Machine Learning Tweaks Fusion Plasmas in Real Time

The conditions for high fusion performance in fusion devices can result in damaging energy bursts called edge-localized modes (ELMs). ELMs can be stabilized through small adjustments to the magnetic confinement field, but this approach is usually...

Infrared Quantum Ghost Imaging Illuminates—But Doesn’t Disturb—Living Plants

A method called quantum ghost imaging (QGI) allow scientists to capture images at extremely low light levels. QGI also enables the use of one color to examine a sample with extremely low light and another color to form the image. The method allows...
