SUMMARY:Overview of research highlights\, growth\, and diversification
  at the Princeton Plasma Physics Laboratory\, Plasma Physics (Physics/
 ECE/NE 922) Seminar\, Jonathan Menard\, Deputy Director for Research a
 nd Chief Research Officer\, Princeton Plasma Physics Laboratory
DESCRIPTION:The Princeton Plasma Physics Laboratory (PPPL) is pursuing
  three complementary research missions to support U.S. national scienc
 e and technology priorities including: (1) Developing the scientific k
 nowledge and advanced engineering to enable fusion to power the U.S. a
 nd the world\, (2) Advancing the science of nanoscale fabrication and 
 sustainable manufacturing for technologies of tomorrow\, and (3) Furth
 ering the development of the scientific understanding of the plasma un
 iverse\, from laboratory to astrophysical scales. In support of Missio
 n 1\, PPPL is completing the recovery and preparation for operation of
  its user facility\, NSTX Upgrade\, is designing and fabricating diagn
 ostics for the ITER burning plasma experiment\, supporting domestic an
 d international tokamak and stellarator research\, and pursuing public
 -private partnerships in support of fusion pilot plant development. In
  support of Mission 2\, PPPL is leading a collaborative research facil
 ity for low-temperature plasmas\, advancing basic science in close col
 laboration with industrial partners in microelectronics and quantum ma
 terials and devices\, and is increasing research utilizing plasmas for
  sustainable manufacturing. Lastly\, in support of Mission 3\, PPPL is
  completing a new collaborative experiment (FLARE) that will enable ne
 w studies of magnetic reconnection\, is preparing for exascale simulat
 ions of ultra-relativistic plasmas at the heart of multi-messenger ast
 ronomy\, and is carrying out novel measurements of high-energy-density
  plasma states. Highlights from these research topics and progress tow
 ard PPPL diversification and growth will be discussed.
