Research activities:
Center for Theoretical Physics:
Studies of anomalous particle and energy transport in the presence of strong drift-wave turbulence and self-organization phenomena, and nonlinear effects in resistive MHD and microinstabilities.

Laser interaction with matter, induced transparency, nonlinear phenomena in plasma-filled wave guides.

Center for Experimental Physics:
Plasma diagnostics (spectral, mass and energy analysis), plasma deposition, plasma - surface interactions, high energy particle detector modeling, non ideal plasmas, ion - atom collisions, multiphoton excitation and dissociation of molecules, environmental physics.

Center for Atomic and Subatomic Physics:
Measurements of electron scattering cross sections (CS) relevant to edge plasmas are continued. Currently, electron elastic and inelastic differential CS on Ar, Zn and Yb have been investigated. Also, broadening and shift of spectral lines in plasmas have been studied using a low pressure arc at 50,800K ≤ T_e ≤ 131,800K, n_e=(2.1 - 6.4) x 10^-17cm^-3.

Center for Applied and Technical Physics:
Measurement of the yield of neutrons, positive particles and X-rays emitted from a deuterium plasma focus of 36kJ (≈ 10¹⁰ n/pulse); identification of positive particles, neutron detection.
