SUMMARY:Belgian Fusion Day
DESCRIPTION:Curious how fusion can power tomorrow? \nDiscover Belgium’s role in the path to fusion energy! \nOpen to students\, educators\, researchers and innovators \nThe Belgian Fusion Day is a joint event organised by the fusion research laboratories at the Royal Military Academy\, the Belgian Nuclear Research Centre SCK-CEN\, Universiteit Gent\, KU Leuven\, Université libre de Bruxelles and Université Catholique de Louvain. It aims to showcase to a broad audience the current state of Fusion Energy development and the involvement of Belgium in the pursuit of this abundant and carbon-free energy source of the future. \nIn this 4th edition of the event\, we focus in particular on the landscape of private fusion companies\, and the role Belgium’s high-tech industry can play in the development of future fusion power plants. The program includes: \n\nInvited speakers from ITER – the world’s largest fusion experiment – and private fusion companies\nOverview of expertise of the Belgian fusion labs\nViews on how Belgium’s high-tech industry can contribute to the development of fusion power plants\nNetworking lunch and reception\n\nWe make the link with fusion-relevant technologies\, including: \n\nAdvanced cooling solutions\nAdvanced computing and digital twins\nGenerative design\nData science\, machine learning\, AI\nAntenna design\nAdditive manufacturing\nThermomechanical analysis and structural integrity assessment\nPlasma Diagnostics & Control\nHeat- & neutron-resistant materials\nVacuum technology and cryogenics\nRemote handling

SUMMARY:Departmental colloquium on weather and climate modeling by  Prof. Steven Caluwaerts (UGent/KMI)
DESCRIPTION:Professor Steven Caluwaerts will give a talk on weather and climate modeling. \nThe miracle of atmospheric modelling: past\, present and future\n \nSince the mid‑20th century\, numerical weather forecasts have been produced\, and today we take their remarkable accuracy for granted. More recently\, climate projections have entered the public sphere\, playing a crucial role in guiding adaptation and mitigation policies. But what science underpins these atmospheric models\, and why do they work so well?\n\nIn this talk\, Prof. Steven Caluwaerts (Royal Meteorological Institute of Belgium – Ghent University) will explore the past\, present\, and future of weather and climate modelling. He will also highlight several ongoing research projects at Belgian research institutions that are advancing our understanding of the atmosphere and its role in a changing climate.\nHybrid meeting can be arranged if enough external interest (let us know on our mail below). \nDetails\nThursday 13/05\nCampus Groenenborger\, G.US.024\n(Groenenborgerlaan 171\, 2020 Antwerpen)\nPlanning:\n– 16:15h start of talk\n– 17h reception \nHope to see you there! \nWith kind regards\,\nThe Antwerp Young Minds \nContact: youngminds@uantwerpen.be

SUMMARY:EPS-TIG: Frontiers in Measurement Techniques
DESCRIPTION:The EPS-TIG event is a multi-day\, hands-on workshop in Leiden that brings together bachelor and master students in Physics and Astrophysics from across Europe. Over four days\, particpants explore how cutting-edge measurement technologies are developed\, how they enable science\, and how innovations move between academia en industry. \nThis year’s theme\, “Frontiers of Measurement Techniques”\, highlights the measurement driven nature of modern physics: from quantum sensing and ultra-sensitive detection to high-performance instrumentation and novel experimental approaches. The central aim is to bridge the gap between industrial innovation and academic research\, showing participants how real-world engineering constraints and scientific curiosity jointly shape the next generation of experiments. \nMore details on the final programme\, speakers\, company visits\, participation/registration\, and logistical information will be published on this page as they are confirmed. \nIf you would like to participate or collaborate\, please reach out via the contact details listed on the website.
