Program 2022


Program of the school 2022

In 2022, the 25th International School on "Low Temperature Plasma Physics: Basics and Applications" (October 1st to 6th, 2022) and its Master Class "Advanced Diagnostics" (October 6th to 8th, 2022) will take place at the Physikzentrum Bad Honnef (Germany). A pdf version of the program is here.

We are looking forward to it because, once again, we are putting together a very promising program, with the support of many colleagues who are willing to give a talk at the School.
