The intracluster medium (ICM), as a magnetized and highly ionized fluid, provides an ideal laboratory to study plasma physics under extreme conditions that cannot yet be achieved on Earth. NGC 1404 is a bright elliptical galaxy that is being gas stri... Read More about Deep Chandra observations of NGC 1404 : cluster plasma physics revealed by an infalling early-type galaxy.

Time resolved anisotropic emission from an aluminium laser produced plasma (2017)
Journal Article
Wubetu, G. A., Fiedorowicz, H., Costello, J. T., & Kelly, T. J. (2017). Time resolved anisotropic emission from an aluminium laser produced plasma. Physics of Plasmas, 24(1), 013105. https://doi.org/10.1063/1.4973444

The polarisation anisotropy of the emission from a laser produced aluminium plasma has been studied using time and polarisation resolved spectroscopy at various background pressures of air. A Wollaston prism was used to resolve the emission from the... Read More about Time resolved anisotropic emission from an aluminium laser produced plasma.
