Plasma workshop at Bo.Ing 2020
The SFB-TR 87 and CRC 1316 joined the workshop program of the Bo.Ing 2020. At the Bochum engineering forum "BO.Ing", pupils are given an insight into the engineering sciences in workshops, laboratory tours and discussion groups. The event is organised by the zdi network IST.Bochum.NRW and is implemented in cooperation with universities from Bochum and the surrounding area.
With plasma workshop, sixteen pupils in two different workshop learned the basic ideas about plasma and its applcation. In hands-on activities, the girls and boys were able to perform their own experiments.

Plasma theory day 2020
Organized under the umbrella of the RAPP Center and Research Department Plasma, we are happy to announce the second Plasma Theory Day at RUB, to take plase from March 16 to March 17, 2020. The program is now online here.
It is meant to further intensify the scientific discussion in the area of plasma- and plasma-astrophysics in the UAR research landscape. Please forward this message to everybody interested. I would appreciate if those who intend to come write an email to me, as I need an estimate concerning the size of the lecture hall. Right now we plan to be in NB7/67, but I can reserve a larger room if necessary.
Dr. habil. Julian Schulze GEC Executive Committee Chair 2020
PI Dr. habil. Julian Schulze has been elected as GEC Executive Committee Chair with the tenure beginning 10/2020. The Gaseous Electronics Conference (GEC) is a prestigous plasma science meeting of the APS, which is organized annually usually in the US.
7th International Plasma Science & Interfaces Workshop
On November 2 & 3, 2020, the 7th International Plasma Science & Interfaces Workshop takes place at the event centre of the Ruhr-Universität Bochum. The event is organized by Hugo de Haan (programme, Vision Dynamics), Guus Peemen (chair, TuE), and Achim von Keudell (host and chair, RUB).
Key topics and themes:
- Plasma medicine, medical and healthcare
- Plasma Surface modification & thin films
- Atmospheric pressure plasma @ Micro/Nano scale
- Atmospheric pressure plasma jet (APPJ)
- Nanoparticles generation and pariclesurface treatment
- Surface diagnostics, energetics, analytics and –metrology
- Plasma parameterization, diagnostics, simulation
- Plasma for Emission Abatement & CO2
- Plasma parameterization, diagnostics, simulation
The workshop will be a PhD (student) expert-level workshop focused on the achievements, challenges and opportunities for the scientific- and entrepreneurial community working in the field.
