IRradiation Effects on HTS for Fusion
12 – 16 November 2023, Arona, Italy
Announcement page
Scope:
The goal of the workshop is to create a strong network of researchers that unites the competences coming from the nuclear fusion community with those from scholars who worked on the high temperature superconductors (HTS). In our view this is a crucial step to tackle the several challenges related to the effects of particle radiation on the HTS tapes that are enabling the development of compact fusion reactors.
Location:
Hotel Concorde, Via Verbano, 1, 28041 Arona (NO), Italy
Important dates:
They will be published within the end of August.
Topics:
- HTS technology for fusion
– State-of-the-art of HTS wires and tapes
– Needs for magnets in compact fusion reactors - Radiation damage
– Neutronics and radiation environment
– Advanced methods and facilities
– Simulations and experiments on HTS
– Irradiation of HTS for pinning optimization
