Physics Research Laboratories & Institutes
CSU Electric Propulsion & Plasma Engineering (CEPPE) Laboratory
The Colorado State University (CSU) Electric Propulsion & Plasma Engineering (CEPPE) Laboratory conducts research, development, and testing in spacecraft ion propulsion, electric propulsion, advanced materials, thermoelectrics, and plasma engineering.
EFDA JET Fusion Research Facility
The world's largest nuclear fusion research facility. JET's unique features allow exploration of the unknown; to investigate fusion's potential as a safe, clean, and virtually limitless energy source
Fermilab
Scientists at Fermilab carry out research in high-energy physics to answer the questions: What is the universe made of? How does it work? Where did it come from?
Idaho National Laboratory (INL)
In operation since 1949, INL is a science-based, applied engineering national laboratory dedicated to supporting the U.S. Department of Energy's missions in nuclear and energy research, science, and national defense
ITER (originally International Thermonuclear Experimental Reactor)
International research and fusion engineering project currently building a tokamak nuclear fusion reactor at Cadarache in Provence-Alpes-Côte-d'Azur, France. A primary goal of ITER is to help make a transition from today's energy technology to future fusion power plants.
Laser Plasma Diagnostics Laboratory (LPDL)
The Laser Plasma Diagnostics Laboratory (LPDL) at the Colorado State University (CSU) researches laser-based diagnostics and non-intrusive measurement of gases, plasmas, and plasma-surface interactions for studies of atmospheric and low-pressure plasmas, plasma sputtering with application toward plasma science, plasma processing, and electric propulsion
Los Alamos National Laboratory (LANL)
LANL is a premier national security research institution, delivering scientific and engineering solutions for the nation's most crucial and complex problems
National Ignition Facility (NIF) & Photon Science
The NIF & Photon Science Principal Directorate is one of five directorates at Lawrence Livermore National Laboratory (LLNL) in Livermore, California and operates the National Ignition Facility (NIF), the world's largest and highest energy laser, with the goal of achieving nuclear fusion and energy gain in the laboratory for the first time
Vibrations & Acoustics Laboratories
The Vibration and Acoustics Laboratories (VAL) at Virginia Tech researches advanced methods for active noise and vibration control systems as well as active-passive methods of reducing noise radiated and transmitted into aircraft interiors.
