| 8th International Workshop on Plasma
Edge Theory in Fusion Devices
10-12 September 2001, Dipoli Congress Centre, Helsinki University of Technology, Espoo, Finland HUT / Department of Engineering Physics and Mathematics / Advanced Energy Systems / 8th PET
SUBJECT MATTERThe 8th International Workshop on Plasma Edge Theory in Fusion Devices was organised by Helsinki University of Technology and VTT (Technical Research Centre of Finland). Like the seven preceding workshops, this workshop addressed plasma theory of the edge region in magnetic confinement fusion devices. It reflected the present status of the theory for the boundary layer of fusion plasmas. The emphasis was on the development of theory and of appropriate numerical methods and on self-consistent modelling of experimental data (including also empirical elements). The following topics were covered by invited and contributed lectures:
PROCEEDINGSThe invited and accepted contributed papers will be included in the proceedings of the workshop and published in the journal “Contributions to Plasma Physics”. The maximum length is limited to 12 pages for invited papers, and to 6 pages for contributed papers.The format of “Contributions to Plasma Physics”, available from the journal's Instructions to authors web page, should be used in the manuscripts. The manuscripts can be e-mailed to pet8@hut.fi as a Postscript or PDF file, with the LaTeX file and figures in separate files. The figures should be in Encapsulated Postscript (EPS) format. This is very important for correct reproduction. HOW TO GET TO THE HOTEL AND CONFERENCE SITEDipoli Congress Centre and Radisson SAS Hotel Espoo are located within 200 m of each other in Otaniemi, Espoo, about 25 km southwest from Helsinki-Vantaa International Airport. The travel time from the Airport to the hotel is 20-25 minutes by taxi, which is by far the easiest way to get there and is thus recommended.The minibus company "Yellow Line Airport Taxi" in the exit hall of the Airport offers inexpensive transport, but may take other passengers to addresses in the same direction on the way. For single passengers this service is about 50% cheaper than an ordinary taxi, and the price is the same (FIM 100) for groups of 2-4 persons. For groups of 5-8 persons, the price is FIM 200. There is no direct shuttle bus service from the Airport to Espoo. If traveling by bus, take the Finnair shuttle bus or the local bus 615 or 617 all the way to their terminus at Helsinki Railway Station. Then walk about 300 m to Helsinki Kamppi Bus Station and take a local bus (102, 103, 194, 195) to Otaniemi (the travel time between Helsinki and Otaniemi is about 20 minutes). In all, travel from the Airport to Otaniemi by bus will take at least 90 minutes depending on bus schedules. Note: Only bus 102 terminates in Otaniemi, the others just drive through and continue to other locations! Maps and bus info... SCIENTIFIC COMMITTEE
