Summer School 2009

 

The 2009 High-Energy-Density-Physics (HEDP) Summer School, organized by the Fusion Science Center at the University of Rochester, with co-sponsorship from LLNL's Institute for Laser Science & Applications, the University of California's Berkeley Institute for Material Dynamics under Extreme Conditions, and General Atomics, will be held at the University of California, Los Angeles, July 26th to August 1st, 2009. The Summer School is for those undergraduate seniors, graduate students, postdocs, and researchers who want to enter, or advance their knowledge in, this new and exciting field of HEDP. Lecture topics include radiation transport and spectroscopy, hydrodynamics, materials properties under extreme conditions, laser-plasma interactions, and experimental techniques, along with other ongoing research activities in the area of HEDP. More background information about high-energy- density-physics can be found at the FSC's HEDP web page.

More than 50 scholarships covering meals, lodging, and travel expenses are available to the undergraduate seniors, graduate students, and postdoc participants. Research scientists are expected to pay a registration fee of $200.
