FuZE-3 is Zap's first device to incorporate a third electrode to separate the forces that drive plasma acceleration and compression. Details of the preliminary results were presented today at the ...

What happens to the body in the deep sea? You need oxygen to survive, but too much oxygen can be deadly. If you rise to the surface too quickly, nitrogen bubbles can form in your body and kill you.

Operating a new device named the Fusion Z-pinch Experiment 3, or FuZE-3, Zap Energy has now achieved plasmas with electron pressures as high as 830 megapascals (MPa), or 1.6 gigapascals (GPa) total, ...

Zap Energy’s approach, known as sheared-flow-stabilized Z-pinch fusion, differs from massive tokamaks or laser-driven ...

Zap Energy’s FuZE-3 device has reached giga-pascal-level plasma pressures thanks to a novel design that independently tunes ...

Marked departures from inviscid flow were found when swirling water was discharged downwards under pressure through a Perspex conical nozzle. A boundary layer of forced vortex motion formed on the ...
