Perspectives: From present experiments to future burning plasmas
The afternoon session on Friday, Oct. 2, will be structured as a panel discussion chaired by prof. W. Heidbrink. Six broad topics relevant to Energetic Particle physics will be discussed as segments during the session.
Professor Heidbrink will first introduce each topic, including a slide that mentions contributions in that category at the 19th EP-TM meeting. Each panelist will then present one slide with their recommendations of one or two important topics for future work.
Meeting participants can submit questions for the panelists by noon Thursday, 1 October
After the introduction, Q&A begins with panelists answering submitted questions, followed by additional comments or questions from the audience (as time permits).
Six topics discussed as segments during the session:
- Nonlinear amplitude & EP transport (25 minutes)
