High-performance computing and plasma physics
Abstract
The physics of ionized gases is a relatively new science. Not until the development of the electrical industry were controlled experiments on ionized gases possible, and so plasma physics is only about 100 years old. The early part of this century saw some pioneering studies of gas discharges and radio propagation in the ionosphere. However, the real impetus came with the initiation of the controlled thermonuclear reaction programs in the 1950s and with the discoveries of the Van Allen belts and the solar wind in the 1960s. Studies in these areas showed that plasma behavior is much more complex than had been anticipated.

About these checks
Registry, retraction, Cites and statistics results are computed, not judged, with one exception: a printed reference that no index lists is read once by a model before it counts as a citation error. Claims are extracted by a model and kept only when their quote appears verbatim in the text; each cited source is then checked, with a model’s help, for whether it says what the claim relies on. Those verdicts can be wrong — read the claim’s quote and the cited source before relying on one.
Statistics and arithmetic are recomputed, not judged.
Confidence bands are shown only for fields calibrated on our annotated test set. None is calibrated yet, so no band is shown.
