Steven Cowley
Steven Cowley is a physicist known for his work in plasma science and nuclear fusion. He studies how to recreate the sun’s energy on Earth by containing and controlling extremely hot plasma in devices called fusion reactors. His research aims to develop a clean, sustainable energy source that could help reduce reliance on fossil fuels. Cowley has held prominent academic and leadership roles, including directing major fusion research centers, and has contributed to advancing our understanding of high-temperature plasma behavior and fusion technology.
