Culham Summer School in Plasma Physics
6 July 1998 - 6 July 1998
United Kingdom
An international summer school on plasma physics, aimed primarily at students near the start of postgraduate courses, will be held at the Culham Science and Engineering Centre, UK, from 6 to 17 July 1998.
The summer school, the 35th in a series organized at Culham - a leading centre for research in plasma physics and nuclear fusion - is supported by the UK Atomic Energy Authority and the European Atomic Energy Community (Euratom). It aims to provide an introduction to the fundamental principles of plasma physics, together with a broad understanding of its fields of application.
The school will bring together postgraduate students from around the world, for a series of lectures given by leading researchers. Topics to be covered by the course will include: fusion plasmas; solar, space and astrophysical plasmas; laser plasmas; industrial applications and generic topics such as computational techniques. No previous knowledge of the subject is assumed, but familiarity with electromagnetism and applied mathematics at first-degree level is helpful.
