Extreme Plasma Science and Engineering Area
We investigate extreme plasmas from laboratories to the universe, and develop the relevant fields of science, such as astrophysics, space physics, laser and plasma physics. Based on these we develop technological innovations leading to the medical and industrial applications. We conduct experiments with intense lasers, develop mass-production skills of nano-structure targets, and perform numerical simulations with super computers to understand the phenomena. We have broad and strong collaborations all over the world, including US, UK France, Germany, China, Taiwan, India, and also with domestic universities and institutions such as National Institute for Fusion Science, National Institute for Quantum and Radiological Science and Technology, and Institute of Laser Engineering.
