Objective
The demand of training in cryogenics for researchers and students has steadily increased following the development of research at low temperatures in physics and technology (nanoscience, nanotechnology, material sciences, low noise electronics, detectors for astrophysics, cryogenic propulsion for rockets, super-conducting magnets for accelerators in particle physics and large scale fusion research, etc.).
The objective of the Course is to provide European young researchers from laboratories, large- scale facilities or industry, with practical training at the doctoral and post-doctoral level in the field of Cryogenics. This will be achieved by lectures and practical courses given by teachers belonging to prestigious European research centres and leading cryogenics enterprises. Training several hundreds of young researchers in advanced cryogenics requires adequate facilities and skilled technical staff only available in a few large low temperature laboratories in the world. In Europe, Grenoble and Helsinki are internationally leading institutions is this field, with a long tradition in training in Cryogenics.
Two training courses are foreseen (Grenoble and Helsinki), as well as two conferences, organised in two other European countries. This course will contribute to develop the competitiveness of European research and industry by providing valuable training, disseminating scientific and technological knowledge, favouring the links between academic and industrial research, and creating strong professional links between event participants from different countries. This activity will also enable researchers of countries where knowledge in cryogenics is not developed to bridge a technological gap. The participation of women, under represented in our field, will be encouraged. The positive effect of these courses is demonstrated by our experience of cryogenics training at the level of undergraduates (Socrates CEE Programme).
