Plasma boffins' POWERFUL wind now a key clue to fiery Sun
Boffins have attempted to recreate astrophysical turbulence in the laboratory, so they can study the force that forms stars, carries heat across galaxies and troubles the edge of the Earth's magnetosphere. Using the Large Plasma Device at UCLA, physicists took high resolution images of turbulent plasma in the chamber and were …

Odd that it's taken this long to test the theory.
In principle all large plasma devices are subject to this so any plasma fusion device would be prone to it. Studying it should have been a priority issue for such developers.
However they tend to be torus shaped, not globular.
Thumbs up for more experiment, less simulation.
