Current atomic data challenges and opportunities for fusion energy research
Time: 11:00 am - 12:00 pm
Place: Mechanical Engineering Building, Room 2188
Speaker: Stuart Loch, Auburn University
Abstract:

The calculation of atomic data for fusion energy plasma devices has a long history, with much effort being put into the calculation of atomic structure for wavelength spectroscopy and atomic collisions for intensity spectroscopy. In addition, much work has been put into the generation of derived coefficients that can be used by the community for transport modeling and plasma diagnostics. This presentation will provide a short review of the current status of the atomic data, outline the remaining challenges, and give some examples of the use of the data for fusion plasma diagnostics. Some of the challenges may be well suited for new approaches, such as those presented by quantum computing.

This event is part of the “QIS for Fusion” project sponsored by the Grainger Institute for Engineering:

Quantum Coffee Hour
Time: 3:00 pm - 4:00 pm
Place: Rm.5294, Chamberlin Hall
Abstract: Please join us for the WQI Quantum Coffee today at 3PM in the Physics Faculty Lounge (Rm.5294 in Chamberlin Hall). This series, which takes place approximately every other Tuesday, aims to foster a casual and collaborative atmosphere where faculty, post-docs, students, and anyone with an interest in quantum information sciences can come together. There will be coffee and treats.
