Gyrokinetic Theory of Strongly Magnetized Plasmas
Between February 19th until February 23th as well as between March 12th and 16th, an intensive course concerning strongly magnetized plasmas will take place at the insitute for theoretical physics of Prof. Grauer. Dr. Daniel Told is going to hold lectures in the morning and exercises will be avaible in the afternoon. The lectures will take place in NB 6/99 and the exercises in NB 7/173.
Interested people are welcome to join!
Kick-Off Meeting CRC 1316
On February 5th and 6th the Kick-Off Meeting of the newly approved collaborative research centre, CRC 1316, took place at Beckmanns Hof in Bochum.
Nearly 40 scientists from the collaboration presented their research goals and started to discuss about scientific goals and collaborations between the different projects.
RUB PhD students at WELTPP 2017
At the end of November, the 20th WELTPP took place in the old convent Rolduc in Kerkrade, the Netherlands. The scientific program was made up of five oral and two poster sessions which covered various topics in the field of low temperature plasma physics with a good balance of theoretical and experimental works. The very interested audience -mostly young researchers - led to a lot of good questions after the talks and fruitful discussions during the poster sessions.
Besides the scientific part, the programm was rounded by good food and a guided tour through the old Abbey. For me it was a great pleasure to take part in this workhop and for next year I recommend it for every young researcher in this field.
CRC 1316 approved by German Research Foundation
The German Research Foundation approved the proposal of Prof. Achim von Keudell and his consortium concerning the funding of a collaborative research project with the title "Transient atmospheric plasmas - from plasmas to liquids to solids". Within the consortium, 17 research projects on different topics are addressed. The funding period is from 2018 until 2022.
