The Sun periodically ejects huge bubbles of plasma from its surface that contain an intense magnetic field. These events are called coronal mass ejections, or CMEs. When two of these ejections collide ...

The CME interactions we studied generated a complex magnetic field and a compressed plasma sheath, which is a layer of charged particles in the upper atmosphere that interacts with Earth's ...

The CME interactions we studied generated a complex magnetic field and a compressed plasma sheath, which is a layer of charged particles that, once they reach the upper atmosphere of Earth from ...

TWZ reports that the concept involves forming a plasma sheath around the vehicle, which significantly lowers viscous skin friction. Focused microwave bursts, coupled with laser plasma, create a ...
