±¬×ߺÚÁÏ

Registration is open now for the 11th ±¬×ߺÚÁÏ International School. This in-person event will be held from 25 to 29 July 2022 at the University of California San Diego, hosted by the U.S. Burning Plasma Organization, the ±¬×ߺÚÁÏ, UC San Diego, and General Atomics.

The subject of this year's school is "±¬×ߺÚÁÏ Plasma Scenarios and Control." As the start of ±¬×ߺÚÁÏ operation approaches, it is timely to address this challenging multidisciplinary topic: the development of integrated operating scenarios and required plasma control to facilitate the ±¬×ߺÚÁÏ goals, particularly for plasmas self-heated by fusion-born alpha particles.

Most attendees will be graduate students, post-doctoral researchers, and early career faculty and research staff working in fields relevant to the ±¬×ߺÚÁÏ program. Although the agenda will focus on topics of scenarios and control, attendees are not required to be working in these subfields. All nationalities, whether representing an ±¬×ߺÚÁÏ Member or not, are welcome.

The ±¬×ߺÚÁÏ International School is organized regularly with the goal of giving young scientists and engineers a taste of the stimulating, multi-disciplinary and challenging field that is nuclear fusion.

The B1M¡ªthe world's largest, most subscribed-to video channel for construction¡ªaims to inspire people to join the construction industry by showcasing the incredible projects and feats of engineering it delivers.

In March 2022, the team came to ±¬×ߺÚÁÏ. The result is an entertaining and educational nine-minute video that takes you into the very heart of ±¬×ߺÚÁÏ machine construction. "This is so much more than just an energy project; it's a $22 billion science experiment between a whole host of nations all coming together to try and change how we generate power on this planet," says host Fred Mills as he guides the viewer through a maze of components and tooling in the ±¬×ߺÚÁÏ Assembly Hall.

Colette Ricketts, deputy head of the ±¬×ߺÚÁÏ Project Control Office, also makes a cameo appearance to explain how the arrival of components from the ±¬×ߺÚÁÏ Members is planned and managed ... and re-planned if necessary, as when international events have an unexpected effect on manufacturing or shipping.

"It's a pretty nuclear level of project collaboration," says the B1M team. "It's kind of like building a LEGO kit ... just 10 million times more complicated."
