1008. From Micro-Scale Instabilities to Anomalous Macroscopic Transport: A High-Fidelity Kinetic Numerical Approach

Prof. Loïc SCHIESKO (CEA)

Plasma Physics / Physique des plasmas (DPP)

Invited Speaker / Conférencier(ère) invité(e)

Electron and ion transport in non-equilibrium plasmas is inherently complex, exhibiting intricate behavior across both spatial and temporal scales. The Particle-In-Cell (PIC) method is one of the most widely used approaches in plasma physics, as it is the closest to first principles and requires very few input parameters, enabling simulations to self-consistently reach a steady state that...

Plasma Physics / Physique des plasmas (DPP)

Invited Speaker / Conférencier(ère) invité(e)

Laser and plasma wakefield accelerators are promising for many applications such as future TeV electron-positron colliders and X-ray free electron lasers (XFELs). These applications, generally, require high beam quality in terms of energy spread, emittance, shot-to-shot stability, etc. To achieve high beam quality, one has to precisely diagnose the beam dynamics during acceleration. This is...

1007. Advances in Plasma-Based Waste Treatment

Prof. Hossam Gaber (Ontario Tech University)

24/06/2026, 11:15

Plasma Physics / Physique des plasmas (DPP)

Invited Speaker / Conférencier(ère) invité(e)

This talk presents advanced approaches for plasma-based waste treatment. Different designs of plasma torches and generation systems are discussed, including RF, DC, and MW plasma, are analysed and compared for waste-to-energy and radioactive waste treatment applications. Novel plasma torch design is proposed to support different scales and types of waste treatment. Process engineering...

580. DRAGONS: New Insights into Galactic Magnetism

Plasma Physics / Physique des plasmas (DPP)

Oral (Non-Student) / Orale (non-étudiant(e))

Magnetic fields are an essential component for life. Without magnetic fields, the Earth would be irradiated by the Solar wind, and the Galaxy would collapse under gravitational pressure. While we have known for ~2000 years that the Earth has a magnetic field, the idea of a Galactic magnetic field (GMF) was first proposed less than 90 years ago. Our work has been focused on understanding what...
