MoD-PMI 7: International Workshop on Models and Data for Plasma-Material Interaction in Fusion Devices

The International Workshop on Models and Data for Plasma-Material Interaction in Fusion Devices (MoD-PMI 2025) will be organized in cooperation with the International Atomic Energy Agency (IAEA) for the seventh time. The event, which will be held at the Vienna International Centre in Vienna, Austria from 26 – 28 May 2025, will bring 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.

MoD-PMI is a satellite workshop for the International Conference in Plasma-Facing Materials and Components (PFMC). The 20th PFMC is organized from 19 – 23 May 2025 in Ljubljana, Slovenia.

Further information about the workshop and information on how to register will be provided soon.

Topics

  • Direct use of first-principles 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.

Audience

Research scientists related to nuclear fusion, at any stage of their career, who are involved in the quantitative and qualitative study, measurement, analysis, modelling, simulation or prediction of processes in plasma-material interactions in fusion devices, using or producing fundamental data on these processes. Experimental and theoretical approaches are welcomed.

The IAEA is committed to the promotion of gender equality in all its activities and qualified women scientists are particularly encouraged to participate in the meeting.
