The Administrative Contact Persons of EUROfusion met in Padua on 1-2 October for their annual face-to-face ACP meeting. This year the meeting focused on the identification of critical issues in the reporting process, lessons learnt, suggestions on best practise, planning the work for the extension of the grant and also some time dedicated to a quiz. At the end of the meeting the ACP colleagues had the opportunity to visit the ITER Neutral Beam Test Facility (NBTF) on the premises of the Consorzio RFX. We would like to thank you the Consorzio RFX for hosting the meeting.

🌟 From Austria to the Stars 🇦🇹🚀 Meet Georg Harrer, fusion physicist, EUROfusion grantee and co-builder of STAR_Lite, a hands-on stellarator lighting up Hampton University 🔧⚡ After facing limited fusion career paths in Austria, Georg took his passion global. Now he’s back home, launching his own fusion company in a workshop that’s been in his family since 1896. Talk about legacy meets future! 💥 His advice to young scientists? 👉 “Just apply. It’s really cool and worth it.” 🔗 https://euro-fusion.org/eurofusion-news/austrian-fusion-ambassador-reaching-for-star_lite/ #FusionEnergy #STARLite #GeorgHarrer #ScienceJourney #FromLemonsToStars #PhysicsInspiration #HamptonUniversity #EUROfusion #FusionFuture #Stellarator #ScienceLife #AustrianInnovation

Science, teamwork & football in Hefei! ⚛️⚽ During the 3rd BEST Research Plan coordination meeting in Hefei, EUROfusion and ASIPP teams not only advanced their strategy for the Burning Experimental Superconducting Tokamak (BEST), but also bonded on the football field. “Talking to each other is good for opening minds, but playing together truly breaks down barriers and paves the way toward a shared goal,” – Richard Kamendje, Head of EUROfusion delegation. This unique mix of science and sport helped cement the collaboration on the joint Research Plan for BEST—an important step toward ITER and future fusion power plants. #FusionEnergy #EUROfusion #Road2Fusion #ScientificCollaboration #CleanEnergy

🚀 Before it hits a wall - why energetic particles matter for fusion Meet Henrik Järlebad, postdoc at DTU and EUROfusion Researcher Grantee. His mission: making fusion experiments smarter and more efficient. 🔍 In future fusion power plants, the distribution of energetic particles will decide… ⚡ where energy flows in the plasma🔒 how well the plasma stays confined 🔥 how efficiently fusion reactions happen 💥 …and whether dangerous instabilities are triggered Henrik explores how AI and machine learning can accelerate and improve the reconstruction of these distributions – a key step towards reliable fusion power. 💡 “I hope to contribute to the development of useful tools designed to monitor energetic particle distribution in future fusion power plants.” 🤝 With EUROfusion’s support, Henrik collaborates across Europe, combining different diagnostic strengths to achieve the most accurate results possible. ✨ His tip for future applicants: “Show your personal impact – how you’ve shaped the field, and what you’ll bring to the future.” 🔗 Read the full interview with Henrik: https://euro-fusion.org/eurofusion-news/before-it-hits-a-wall-henrik-jarleblad/ #FusionEnergy #EUROfusion #PlasmaPhysics #AI #MachineLearning #FutureOfEnergy #ResearchImpact #EURATOM #ResearcherGrant
