== In plasmas == Plasmas consist of ionized gas. Electric charge can cause the formation of electromagnetic fields in plasmas, which can lead to the formation of currents or even multiple currents. This phenomenon is used in [[nuclear fusion]] reactors. It also occurs naturally in the cosmos, in the form of jets, nebula winds or cosmic filaments that carry charged particles. This cosmic phenomenon is called [[Birkeland current]]. Considered in general, the electric conductivity of plasmas is a subject of [[Plasma (physics)|plasma physics]].
