About

Plasma transport is a fundamental concept and research area in plasma physics concerned with the movement of particles, energy, and momentum within a plasma medium. It investigates the mechanisms driving these fluxes, including diffusion, convection, and turbulence, which are critical for understanding the behavior of natural plasmas, such as those in stars, and engineered plasmas, particularly in the context of magnetic confinement fusion devices where controlling energy and particle confinement is essential for achieving sustained fusion reactions.
