2022 Summer School for undergraduate students: From the laboratory to the distant universe, the World of Plasmas
All the versions of this article: [English] [français]
The PLAS@PAR International Summer School was founded in 2013. This school gives the opportunity to students at the end of their Bachelor’s or beginning of their Master’s degree to discover plasma physics in its great diversity. This interdisciplinary field covers a wide range of phenomena occurring in space as well as in research or industrial laboratories. Several researchers of LPP will teach at this summer school.
Plasmas, also known as the 4th state of matter, are not only at the heart of thermonuclear fusion, but also play an important role in numerous industrial applications ranging from nanotechnology to space propulsion. This week of discovery allows to apprehend all the richness and the possible outlets of plasma physics.

The school will take place in August 21-27, 2022 in Roscoff (Brittany). It is free of charge for students selected by research unit PLAS@PAR according to a ranking based on academic merit and motivation.
The registration is open until May 31, 2022.
