24th Symposium on Plasma Physics and Technology

The Symposium on Plasma Physics and Technology has a long tradition and is usually held biennially. This will be the 24th Symposium. It was originally founded for the presentation of results of the Institute of Plasma Physics of the Czechoslovak Academy of Sciences (IPP CAS) in 1967. Since 1969 it has gradually become a Czechoslovak forum in this branch and many famous foreign scientists have made presentations. Till 1992 the Symposium was organized by IPP CAS itself at Liblice Castle. Since 1993 it has been held in co-operation with the Department of Physics, Faculty of Electrical Engineering of the Czech Technical University (FEE CTU) in Prague. Since 2000 the Proceedings were published in Czechoslovak Journal of Physics till journal dissolution in 2006. In contrast to previous SPPT symposia there was no proceedings in the traditional sense in 2008 but authors were encouraged to send their papers to European Physical Journal D, and an EPJD special issue is after reviewing published now. There will be about 200- 250 participants.
