Objectives
The
purpose of the meeting is to discuss the status of experimental and theoretical
works on suprathermal electrons and ions in a wide variety of magnetic
confinement geometries. The meeting will cover the formation and transport of
energetic particles, the collective instabilities they drive, their effects on
the plasma, and energetic particle diagnostics. The meeting will aim to identify
important physics issues associated with the energetic ions to be studied in
future, in particular, for ITER and fusion power plants.

Topics
(A) Alpha
particles physics
(B) Transport of energetic particles
(C) Effects of
energetic particles in magnetic confinement fusion devices
(D) Collective
phenomena: Alfvén eigenmodes, energetic particle modes and others
(E) Runaway
electrons and disruptions
(F) Diagnostics for energetic
particles
Meeting format
The meeting will consist of invited and contributed oral presentations, poster session, and a summary session. It is expected that invited talks will be 35 minutes plus 5 minutes discussion and session talks will be 20 minutes with 5 minutes for discussion. Poster sessions shall be used for longer discussions. An overhead projector for transparencies and an electronic projector with a computer capable of reading CD's and memory sticks will be available (Power Point or pdf recommended).
The official language of the meeting is English (no
interpretation will be provided). It is expected that the meeting will start at
09:00 on 21 September 2009 and end by 17:00 on 23 September 2009. A short
summary of the meeting, including recommendations, will be presented and
approved during the Summary session (last session). A summary manuscript will be
prepared for submission to Nuclear Fusion journal.
Participation
About 60 persons from IAEA Member States or international organizations are expected to attend. Participants should be persons actively involved in the topics of the meeting.
In order to participate in the meeting, these major steps must be completed:
(1) IAEA PARTICIPATION (Form A
submission)
A participant will be accepted only if the Participation
Form A is transmitted to
the IAEA through the appropriate Governmental representative authority (Ministry
of Foreign Affairs, National Atomic Energy Authority) by 12 June
2009. In the case the participant intends to give a contribution the
abstract should be attached.
(2) ABSTRACT SUBMISSION
A one page
abstract must be submitted by 12 June 2009. The abstract may be
text only or contain figures and graphics, but must be only one page. The
abstract must contain the authors’ names, affiliation and email address.
Acceptable file formats are Microsoft Word (preferred) or PDF. The filename
should be in the following format: "lastname.i.n.i.t.i.a.l.s.-topic.filetype",
for example, Spitzer.I.N.-D.doc or Spitzer.I.N.-D.pdf.
Contributors of material to be included in Agency publications are required to assign all copyrights or rights to publish to the Agency. Please complete and sign Form B and send it to the IAEA Scientific Secretary (please see address at the end of the announcement) by 12 June 2009.

EXPENDITURES AND FINANCIAL SUPPORT
No registration fee will be
charged by the IAEA for participants to participate in the meeting.
As a general rule, the IAEA does not pay the costs for
attendance to the meeting (i.e. travel and living expenses) of participants.
However, limited funds are available to help meet the cost of attendance and
participation of a few selected specialists mainly from developing countries
with low economic resources. Generally, not more than one grant will be awarded
to any one developing country. The grants awarded will be in the form of lump
sums usually covering part of the cost of attendance.
If governments wish to apply for a grant on behalf of one of their specialists, they should address specific requests to the IAEA Scientific Secretary at the International Atomic Energy Agency to this effect. Governments should ensure that applications for grants:
a) are received by the IAEA before 12 June 2009
b) are
accompanied by a duly completed and signed Grant Form C and an estimate of a valid travel
agent of the flight costs from/to the duty city in their country and Kyiv.
c) are accompanied by a duly completed and signed Grant Form B and
abstract.
Applications that do not comply with the conditions mentioned above
cannot be considered.
Awards will be announced by August
2009.
(4) VISA
At present, no visa is
required for participants from the European Union, Japan, Republic of Korea,
Norway, Russia, Switzerland, USA, and some others. Nevertheless, it is
recommended to have a letter of invitation from the Local Organizing Committee
when crossing the border. Designated participants who require a visa to enter
Ukraine should submit the necessary application to the nearest diplomatic or
consular representative of Ukraine as soon as possible.

SUBMISSION OF PROCEEDING
PAPERS
Electronic versions of papers will be collected at the
meeting. A manuscript of about 12 pages for invited, 9 pages for contributed
oral and 7 pages for contributed poster shall be prepared for inclusion on the
meeting proceedings published by IAEA in CD-ROM (it will be available on the web
and will include presentations of the submitted manuscripts). Authors should
pass the manuscript at the registration desk on the first day of the meeting (21
September 2009). The possibility of publishing a selection of Invited papers in
a refereed Journal will be announced at a later stage.
SUMMARY OF
TM
A summary report of the meeting will be prepared for submission
to the “Nuclear Fusion” journal.
