Comments Off on PhD studentship in Applied Mathematics (Fluid Dynamics) at Coventry University (UK)
(from Sergei Molokov, Coventry)
Coventry University invites applications for a 3.5-year PhD Industrial CASE studentship in Applied Mathematics (Fluid Dynamics). The studentship is co-funded by the Engineering and Physical Sciences Research Council and Culham Centre for Fusion Energy (http://www.ccfe.ac.uk/). The work, to be performed in collaboration with Culham and with Ilmenau University of Technology (Germany, http://www.tu-ilmenau.de/tfd/ ), involves Direct Numerical Simulation of turbulent flow in rectangular ducts in the presence of a strong magnetic field with reference to liquid metal blankets for fusion reactors.
Candidates must be EU nationals holding a BSc degree in Mathematics, Physics or a related discipline (or those who will have obtained the degree by September 2012). Exceptional overseas students are also encouraged to apply.
The maintenance grant is £13,260 p.a. tax free. The starting date must be not later than the end of September, 2012.
For an informal discussion please contact Prof Sergei Molokov at s.molokov(at)coventry.ac.uk
(http://nestor2.coventry.ac.uk/research/appmath/staff/molokov.php).
Please submit an application form, a detailed CV, two references (one of which must be academic) and a covering letter to research-apps.pg(at)coventry.ac.uk.
The deadline for applications is 13th April, 2012. However, the position will remain open
until the suitable candidate is found.

Comments Off on Proposals for Magnet Time at LNCMI are open from April 15 to May 15, 2012
The Laboratoire National des Champs Magnétiques Intenses (LNCMI), is one of the large scale facilities of the CNRS, it is part of the EuroMagNet consortium (Grenoble & Nijmegen for DC magnetic field, Toulouse & Dresden for pulsed magnetic field)
The LNCMI delivers to researchers each year 4000 hours of continuous (DC) high magnetic field up to 35 Teslas and 80 Teslas with pulsed field.The high field facility is open mainly to users from 27 countries of the European Union and from the associated states (Iceland, Israel, Liechtenstein, Norway, Switzerland and Turkey). Researches from other countries can also perform their experiments at LNCMI, but they are supposed to cover themselves their travel and living expenses. To perform experiments under high magnetic field, one has to submit a proposal to the programm Comittee that meets twice a year. During their stay in Grenoble, users can rely on the scientific, technical and administrative assistance of LNCMI staff. In particular they are helped by a “local contact”, a resident scientist or engineer.Call for the submission of proposals for magnet time allocation will be open from April 15th, 2012 to May 15th, 2012.
The application form will be available on EuroMagNET’s ‘ web site:

Comments Off on European MHD Days 2012
Dear all,
Most of us attend their national MHD meetings once per year to exchange ideas with their national colleagues.
In order to promote the collaboration within Europe we propose to join the UK, French and German MHD meetings 2012
and invite people from other countries to contribute as well.
The European MHD Days 2012 will be held in Nice on October 1-4. Please mark these dates in your calendar.
We are currently working on a website for further information and will inform you once its ready.
All the best
Yannick (Yannick.Ponty(at)oca.eu) and Johannes (wicht(at)mps.mpg.de)
