3rd International Congress on Radiation Physics and Chemistry of Inorganic Materials, High Current Electronics and Modification of Materials with Particle Beams and Plasma Flows

Tomsk, Russia, on September 17-21, 2012.

The Congress unites three mutually related traditional International Conferences being regularly held in Tomsk: the 15th International Conference on Radiation Physics and Chemistry of Condensed Matter (15th RPC), the 17th International Symposium on High-Current Electronics (17th SHCE), and the 11th International Conference on Modification of Materials with Particle Beams and Plasma Flows (11th CMM).

Traditionally, the program of three conferences covers a wide range of technical areas and modern aspects of physical and chemical non-linear processes in inorganic dielectrics under the action of particle and photon beams, physical basis of radiation-related technologies, pulsed power technology, ion and electron beams, high-power microwaves, plasma and particle beam sources, modification of material properties, and pulsed power applications in chemistry, biology and medicine.

The five-day congress will bring together specialists from different places and will provide an excellent opportunity for knowledge sharing, formal presentations and open discussions about topics of interest to the conference participants.

The conferences will be held at National Research Tomsk Polytechnic University (). Tomsk is an old Siberian city which celebrated its 400th anniversary in 2004. You will enjoy the atmosphere of Siberian Athens. Its wooden houses, universities and places of interest are definitely well worth a visit.

We look forward to your participation and sincerely hope that you will enjoy the scientific program and that your stay in Tomsk will be memorable.
