plasma

The new method takes a deeper look at the proteins in plasma and reveals biomarkers that enable researchers -- and ultimately physicians -- to detect diseases sooner.

In this way, Medvedev determined the Crab Pulsar's plasma matter causes diffraction in the electromagnetic pulses responsible for the neutron star's singular zebra pattern.

Other studies have looked at blood plasma, which is not specific to the tissues affected by the disease.

The CMEs spew out plasma and magnetic field, and up to billions of ton of material, that can hit Earth.

The other way, known as magnetic confinement fusion, uses powerful magnets to trap a burning cloud of atoms called plasma.
