Scope

 

The aim of the conference is to provide a discussion forum covering all areas of fusion-oriented theoretical activities. The conference programme consists of invited lectures, oral and poster contributions.

Both invited and regular contributions will be offered a possibility to submit their paper to a special issue of Journal of Plasma Physics (peer-reviewed). Submission deadline is August 31, 2020.
The papers will be accessible through the link.

The main topics covered are:


• Fusion devices: tokamaks, stellarators, reversed-field pinches, laser-induced ignition and new concepts

• Macro-instabilities, operational limits and disruptions

• Plasma confinement, neoclassical and turbulent plasma transport

• Optimization of magnetic confinement devices and 3D magnetic field effects

• Burning plasmas and fast particles

• Heating, current drive and wave-particle interactions

• Edge and scrape-off layer/divertor physics

• Experimental validation of theoretical models and diagnostics development

• Computational plasma physics

• Basic plasma theory
