Beschreibung

A training course for postgraduate students (PhD & MSc) with the aim of focusing on the basics of Inertial Fusion Energy.

The particular focus will be on the high energy and high efficiency laser technology required for laser driven fusion, and on diagnostic sources.

In the frame of the Erasmus+ KA2-HED project “LaserFusion: Innovative Education & Training in Laser Inertial Fusion Energy” this 5-day bootcamp will constitute a training course for PhD students with focus on diagnostics for Inertial Fusion Energy experiments. It will include lectures and seminars on theoretical aspects and practical schemes of plasma, particle and radiation diagnostics, as well as active excises.
