17th International Workshop on H-mode Physics and Transport Barriers held in DHU

Date:2019-10-18

Donghua University, 17th International Workshop on H-mode Physics and Transport Barriers held in Donghua University was held on Yan'an Campus from October 9-11. Nearly 100 experts and scholars from the field of magnetic confinement fusion research in China, the United States, the European Union, Russia, Japan, South Korea and other countries and regions attended the conference. For the high-constraint mode and edge transport barrier in Tokamak plasma, participants at the conference discussed frontier issues such as the formation and maintenance of plasma edge transport barrier, the influence of feeding and transport on the physics of the basement region, and the control of the edge localized mode and its physical mechanisms.

Vice president Chen Nanliang delivered an opening speech on behalf of the university. He welcomed the participants and representatives of the scholars and introduced the development of the school and the plasma science of the College of Science. He hoped that the experts could better share and exchange the latest research progress on H-mode physics and transport barriers at this conference, strengthen international exchanges and cooperation so as to promote common progress in the field of high-temperature plasma.

During the conference, experts attending the conference made 6 invited reports, 12 joint reports and 6 presentations on the six topics of Formation and Maintenance of Fusion Plasma Edge Transport Barriers, Research Progress in Small-Edge Localized Modes and No-Edge Localized Modes, Effects of Radial Electric Fields During Low-High Constraint Mode Conversion,  Physical Mechanism and Control of Edge Localized Modes,  Effects of Isotopes on Particle Transport and Heat Transport, Effects of Feeding and Transport on the Structure of the Base Area .

The convening of this symposium provided a good academic exchange platform for experts and scholars on high-temperature plasma research to freely share and discuss the achievements, experiences and reflections in high-constraint mode physics and transport experiments and theoretical research, and to propose further solutions to new problems and new challenges. This session is also the first international conference held in China on this research direction. It will help to enhance China's international influence in the field of fusion research, and also show the world the image of Donghua University and the image of Shanghai, China.
