INTAS Strategic Scientific Workshop
"Role of Electric Fields in Plasma Confinement in Stellarators and Tokamaks"

INTAS’ Strategic Scientific Workshops are a tool for INTAS to define its strategy by bringing together the scientific community at large, involving scientists from the INTAS members and the NIS with representatives of national and international organizations in science, industries and other groups relevant to the aims of the workshop. The strategic workshops shall engage the participants in in-depth and forward looking discussions about promising scientific research topics, potential areas of cooperation and future scientific priorities. An additional important goal of the workshop will be to promote new project partnerships ready to submit research proposals at INTAS and - this would be a great success - bring potential partners together with INTAS being interested in a cooperative call.

Scope of the Workshop:
  1. Analysis of confinement in tokamaks and stellarators under different scenarios of potential distributions in plasma.
  2. Using the electric field diagnostics for analysis of turbulent processes in periphery plasma.
  3.  Influence of electric field biasing on the confinement properties of toroidal systems.
  4.  Diagnostics of electric fields in confined plasma
