The International Workshop on Models and Data for Plasma-Material Interaction in Fusion Devices (MoD-PMI 2023) is organized in cooperation with the International Atomic Energy Agency (IAEA) for the sixth time. The event, which was held in Aachen, Germany from 29 – 31 May 2023, brought together researchers from the areas of fusion energy and materials science to review advances, both experimental and in modelling, in the study and understanding of processes relevant to plasma-material interaction (PMI) relevant for fusion devices and reactors.
Direct use of first-principle approaches (DFT and beyond).
Applications of multi-scale methodologies.
Machine learning methods for materials data prediction.
PMI and neutron irradiation effects to material surface composition, morphology and microstructure evolution.
Experimental PMI data for modelling: sputtering mechanisms, implantations, spectroscopy, microscopy, etc.
