04-09-2016: 16th International Conference on Liquid and Amorphous Metals (LAM-16)

The 16th International Conference on Liquid and Amorphous Metals (LAM-16) will be held at the town hall of Bonn – Bad Godesberg, Germany, from September 04-09, 2016.

The conference aims to provide a forum for scientists interested in liquid and amorphous metals in order to discuss recent advances and future directions in this intriguing field of condensed matter physics, chemistry and materials sciences. Apart from papers on metallic systems, the LAM conferences traditionally also welcome contributions on liquid and amorphous semi-conductors as well as on molten salts.

The series of LAM conferences has a long standing history dating back to the liquids metal conference LM-1 in Brookhaven (1966). It was followed by the liquid metals conferences in Tokyo (1972) and Bristol (1976). The scope of the conference series was complemented by topics of amorphous metals in the following LAM conferences held in Grenoble (1980), Los Angeles (1983), Garmisch-Partenkirchen (1986), Kyoto (1989), Wien (1992), Chicago (1995), Dortmund (1998), Yokohama (2001), Metz (2004), Ekaterinburg (2007), Rome (2010) and Beijing (2013).

We are planning plenary sessions on hot topics and future advances in the field and there will be thematically focused sessions with invited and selected contributed talks as well as a poster session.

The following topics will be covered by the conference:

  • structural and dynamical properties of liquid and amorphous phases
  • bulk amorphous glasses (development and properties)
  • liquids under extreme and/or highly metastable conditions
  • thermophysical properties of metallic melts and amorphous matter
  • experimental techniques for investigating liquid and amorphous
    matter (including state of the art in-situ techniques for studying non-equilibrium states, phase transitions or chemical reactions in liquid and amorphous matter)
  • simulation techniques for studying structure, dynamics and properties of liquid and amorphous systems
  • investigations on liquid metals under the unique conditions of reduced gravity
  • applications of amorphous materials.

Abstract submission deadline: March 31, 2016

16th MHD-Days [update]

July 2015 update of announcement:

16th MHD-Days

TU Ilmenau, December 7-9, 2015

——————————————————————————————————-

The topics of the MHD Days include both geo- and astrophysical MHD as well as industrial applications of MHD. The conference webpage is

www.tu-ilmenau.de/mhddays2015

The MHD days will also be used to give an overview of the ongoing activities in the Research Training Group on flow measurement in liquid metals and electrolytes using contactless Lorentz force velocimetry and on non-destructive material inspection using Lorentz force eddy current testing. This Research Training Group at TU Ilmenau is supported by the Deutsche Forschungsgemeinschaft.

Confirmed speakers at the event are

  • Jonathan Aurnou, UCLA, USA
  • Peter Davidson, University of Cambridge, UK
  • Peter Frick, Perm State University, Russia
  • Gunter Gerbeth, Helmholtz Center Dresden-Rossendorf, Germany
  • Koulis Pericleous, University of Greenwich, UK

The conference fee will be 85 Euros including conference dinner. Registration and abstract submission will be active from September. We hope that the community will be interested in the conference, and we look forward to welcoming many participants.

20-06-2016: 27th Symposium on Plasma Physics and Technology Prague, Czech Republic

The Symposium on Plasma Physics and Technology has a long tradition and is usually held biennially. This will be the 27th Symposium. It was originally founded for the presentation of results of the Institute of Plasma Physics of the Czechoslovak Academy of Sciences (IPP CAS) in 1967. Since 1969 it has gradually become a Czechoslovak forum in this branch and many famous foreign scientists have made presentations. Since 1993 it has been held in co-operation with the Department of Physics, Faculty of Electrical Engineering of the Czech Technical University (FEE CTU) in Prague. Last symposia were granted the label European Physical Society Sponsored Conference.
Since 2000 the SPPT participants had the possibility to offer their original papers based on the SPPT contributions for publication in various journals (Czechoslovak Journal of Physics, European Physical Journal D, Acta Technica), since 2012 Acta Polytechnica and Plasma Physics and Technology.
The symposium is of the European importance. There will be about 150-200 participants.
