Researchers at LeHigh University are exploring the instability threshold of elastic/plastic materials crucial for inertial confinement fusion through experiments with mayonnaise in a rotating figure-eight contraption.
Inertial confinement fusion involves forcing together positively charged nuclei to promote fusion without detonating nuclear weapons, using compression to release energy in a controlled manner.
