Announcements
December 08, 2016 (A368). The 2nd International Workshop: Towards Room Temperature Superconductivity - SUPERHYDRIDES and MORE will be held in Orange, CA, USA, from May 08-09, 2017.
December 5, 2016 (A367). The Research Center Juelich (FZJ), Germany, organizes the 48th IFF[1] Spring School on the topic of “Topological Insulators, Skyrmions, and Majoranas”. Lectures will start on Monday, March 27th and end on April 7th in the afternoon. The School intends to attract graduate students, young scientists and other professionals desiring to familiarize themselves with the topic in a relatively systematic manner.
December 5, 2016 (A366). On November 28, 2016, the U.S. Department of Energy announced nearly $25 million for 13 projects aimed at advancing technologies for energy-efficient electric motors through applied research and development. The Office of Energy Efficiency and Renewable Energy’s (EERE) Next Generation Electric Machines projects will address the limitations of traditional materials and designs used in electric motor components by cost-effectively enhancing their efficiency, improving their performance, and reducing weight. This effort will support innovative approaches that will significantly improve the technology in industrial electric motors, which use approximately 70 percent of the electricity consumed by U.S. manufacturers and nearly a quarter of all electricity consumed nationally.
December 05, 2016 (A365). The International Magnet Technology Conference in 2017 (MT25) will be held in Amsterdam, The Netherlands, from August 27 through September 01, 2017. All the information on the Conference venue, Conference program, registration, and paper submission is available at www.MT-25.org.
December 02, 2016 (A364). The 21st joint Cryogenic Engineering Conference and International Cryogenic Materials Conference (CEC/ICMC 2017) will be held in Madison, Wisconsin, USA, from July 09 - July 13, 2017. All information on the Conference venue, Conference program, registration, and paper submission is available at the CEC/ICMC 2017 website http://www.cec-icmc.org.
November 28, 2016 (A363). The 16th International Superconductive Electronics Conference (ISEC 2017) will be held in Sorrento, Italy from June 12th to 16th, 2017. All the information on the Conference venue, registration, and paper submission is available at the ISEC 2017 website http://www.isec2017.org. Specifically, Abstract submission starts on December 1st, 2016 with the deadline of January 24th, 2017.
Greetings, LTSW community -
Please save the date for the 2017 Low-Temperature Superconductor Workshop, to be held February 27 - March 1, 2017, at the LaFonda on the Plaza hotel in Santa Fe, New Mexico.
We are expecting to open registration and talk submission in November, with a deadline in early-January 2017. More information and a meeting charge will be available in the near future.
On behalf of Prof. Lesley Cohen:
The Imperial College London, Physics department has just announced a number of permanent academic positions in condensed matter physics. I am a member of the search committee, with particular interest in applications in superconductivity, magnetism strongly correlated matter and functional materials areas, and I am trying to get the adverts seen as widely as possible. As the advert states we particularly welcome female applicants.
