Plasma Physics Group (P-24)
P-24 researches the basic properties of plasmas with a view to applications
in important Laboratory and national programs. The understanding and
application of plasmas that exist over a large range of temperatures
and densities is a Los Alamos core competency.
P-24 is composed of a diverse technical staff with expertise in plasma
physics, plasma chemistry, atomic physics, laser and optical science,
pulsed power, dynamic properties of materials, and transient radiation
and particle diagnostics. The group uses both on-site and off-site experimental
facilities to address problems of national significance in inertial
and magnetic fusion, high-energy-density physics, conventional defense,
environmental management, and plasma-based advanced or green manufacturing.
Basic research includes the properties of energetic matter and applied
research that supports the principal Laboratory mission of reducing
the nuclear danger. The pursuit of this agenda entails the physics of
plasmas over a range of conditions.
