Published by the IAEA, supported by FuseNet, a new Textbook on Fusion Technologies will become available for students and lecturers on the IAEA online library. It will be launched on 11 May at the Fusion Energy ConferenceThis textbook is a second one in a series. It is a follow-up on the IAEA Texbook on Fusion Physics (https://www-pub.iaea.org/MTCD/Publications/PDF/Pub1562_web.pdf )

Now you have the unique opportunity to contribute to the book: by designing its cover! Are you creative and do you want eternal fame? Then share with us your best suggestion for the cover of the book! Maybe your creation will end up in hundreds of libraries all around the globe.

SUMTRAIC postponement

Due to the CoVid19 situation, the IPP CAS (Prague) has decided to postpone its yearly summer school: 18th SUMTRAIC (2020).

It will be merged with the annual EMTRAIC organised for the M2 FUSION-EP students.
SUMTRAIC is a 2-weeks experimental SUMmer TRAIning Course in plasma physics in magnetic confinement fusion devices (tokamaks) organised annually at the IPP CAS (Prague). The centre of gravity of this summer school lies in the direct involvement of the participants in the processing and analysis of experimental data from the COMPASS tokamak or even in the participation in the experiments, when compatible with the experimental programme.

  • The event will take place from November 30th to December 11th, 2020.

  • The registration deadline is set to September 28th.

  • Applicants are required to submit a CV, a motivation letter and a recommendation letter.

  • Accommodation will be provided to participants and paid by the IPP CAS (Prague).

  • A fee of 50 euros is to be paid by accepted applicants.

Please find all the relevant information concerning the event here:http://indico.ipp.cas.cz/event/18/

This event is organised by Jordan Cavalier, Jan Stockel and the COMPASS team at IPP Prague, the Czech Republik.
