Summer School on the Physics of Plasma-Surface Interactions
The National Nuclear Research University (NRNU) Moscow Engineering and Physics Institute (MEPhI) held its International Summer School on the Physics of Plasma-Surface Interactions in Moscow, Russia, in 2014, 2016, 2018, 2020 and 2021 with the goal of providing the opportunity for graduate students, postgraduate fellows, and young researchers to meet and interact with leading scientists from complex and diverse field of plasma-surface interactions.
The summer school will cover elementary processes at the plasma-material interface; material erosion, migration, mixing, and dust formation; plasma interaction with liquid metals; solid and liquid plasma-facing components for fusion devices; and plasma-assisted surface modification for technological applications. Graduate students and young scientists are strongly encouraged to present their own work in the form of either 20-minute oral presentation or as a poster. Information about the next Summer School will be posted .
NEWS: A Winter School on Controlled Thermonuclear Fusion (CTF) and Plasma Technologies will be organized by the Rosatom Research Institute in Troitsk, the National Research Nuclear University MEPhI (NRNU MEPhI), and the National Research Center Kurchatov Institute from 16 to 20 February 2026, in Tarusa (Kaluga Region). This Winter School aims to train a new generation of scientists in the field of CTF and plasma technologies. Participants will have a unique opportunity to deepen their knowledge in key areas of plasma physics, become familiar with cutting-edge research and facilities, and establish professional contacts with leading experts and colleagues. The event will include lectures by leading scientists (including representatives of ºÚÁÏÉçapp and TRT), remote experiments (online broadcast via videoconferencing), and data analysis in groups. Senior undergraduates, graduate students, and young researchers in plasma physics and engineering (age 39 and under) are invited to participate.
