How the weird and wonderful properties of magnetised laser plasmas could ignite fusion-energy research

Archie Bott explains how a promising scheme for fusion relies on a novel feature of hot laser-plasmas: introducing a magnetic field of the correct strength alters the plasma’s fundamental properties in a highly counterintuitive yet beneficial manner.
