Newsletter #10

Words From The Editor

Dear Colleague,

   The ATW 2015 event has taken place and has been a great success. 60 participants from 14 contries have contributed to a successful 2015 edition. The success of this event will probably push us to dedicate more resources to the argument of low and hight temperature plasma flows. We will start dedicating soon some resources on our web site, and in planning some more activities in the future. 

Who participated in this event will shortly receive an email with some instructions on how to upload interesting and/or beautiful pictures to our servers to be put on display.

The Eucass 2015 event directly organized by Eucass is getting closer and closer, please visit the event website to have last minutes infos.

The complete list of past newsletters is available at the EUCASS website.
