The Fourth IAEA Technical Meeting (IAEA-TM) on Steady State Operation of Fusion Devices and MHD of advanced scenarios will be hosted by the Institute for Plasma Research, Gandhinagar, India from 1 February to 5 February 2005. The IAEA Technical Meeting on Steady State
Operation of Magnetic Fusion Devices is a workshop for open discussions on
physics and technology issues of steady state operation of magnetic fusion
devices. The specific requirements associated with the construction and
steady state operation of new machines shall be addressed. The scope of
this meeting is to bring together the experts from the field of steady
state operation to present results from existing long-pulse machines and
discuss physical and technological aspects of new long-pulse
machines. The format of the meeting will be as follows: Plenary Talks (45 minutes duration) Invited Talks (30 minutes duration) Oral Presentations (20 minutes duration) Poster Sessions Posters will be exhibited for the entire Conference duration and participants are requested to pin-up their posters from Feb. 1, 2005. The maximum available space per poster is two A1 sized posters, i.e. 2m (width) x 1.5 m (height). Participants are requested to choose colors and appropriate font size so that the poster is clearly visible from a distance of 5-6 feet. The official language of the meeting is English (no interpretation will be provided). The meeting will start at 09:00 on 1 February 2005 and end by 16:30 on 5 February 2005.

An overhead projector for presentations with view-graphs/transparencies will also be available. Participants are required to send a copy of
presentation by email before January 14, 2005 to: Conference Topics include: OV: Overview, Superconducting Devices FT: Steady State Fusion Technologies LP: Long-pulse Operation and Advanced Tokamak PC: Particle control and Power exhaust HCD: Heating and Current Drive SS,TH: Feedback control, theory and modelling of steady-state plasma To see the entire Conference Programme click here. 3.
