When temperatures soar, so do heart attacks. Now, a lab experiment explains just how temperatures climbing into Fahrenheit’s three-digits can cause ischemia and potential heart attacks, all while ...
When a spacecraft enters a thick atmosphere at a high velocity, it rapidly compresses the gas in front of it. This creates temperatures high enough to ionize the gas molecules into a hot, dense plasma ...
So how hot is it in Tallahassee? Even the world's largest magnetic laboratory had to take a breather. The National High Magnetic Field Laboratory, known mostly as the "MagLab," was forced to briefly ...
Researchers at the U.S. Department of Energy’s Princeton Plasma Physics Laboratory have set a new fusion record on the WEST tokamak, sustaining plasma at roughly 50 million degrees Celsius for six ...
The US Air Force (USAF) hosted a heat pipe experiment on its most recent Boeing X-37B Orbital Test Vehicle (OTV) mission, which could help the service learn how to better manage heat with spacecraft.
