Have you ever imagined women experimentalists working in the laboratory of high-voltage pulsed plasma accelerators?!
Despite gender stereotypes in society, in the field of studying the laws of nature, the contributions of women scientists were recognized in the world much earlier. The first woman in Nobel Prize history, the famous Marie Sklodowska Curie, discovered the principles of radioactivity and created a great revolution in nineteenth-century natural science.
Pulsed plasma accelerators are experimental facilities for generating high-temperature plasma flux. They are of great importance in the fields of fusion energy, industrial technology and space research. Working with these setups, particularly girls are feared. Nevertheless, I have faced KazNU named after Al-Farabi master, Ph.D. students who conduct research in this direction and achieve great success. Regardless of the complexity and risk of the work, they have already conducted several investigations (diagnostics of plasma flux, the study of the interaction of plasma flux with the surface of candidate TNR materials, obtaining nanomaterials, etc.).
Gender in no way affects the results of the experiment; it is only determined by the intellectual abilities of any person. The most important thing here is the desire to learn new things and the presence of a goal.
