Publications
Two records of the contributions can be kept for the 14th IAEA Technical Meeting on Control Systems, Data Acquisition, Data Management and Remote Participation in Fusion Research (2024 IAEA TM):
- Oral Presentations and posters will be kept available on the IAEA Technical Meeting website in a public section;
- Authors may submit their papers to the hybrid journal Fusion Engineering and Design (FED) – Special Issue for the 2024 IAEA TM. Acceptance is not automatic: The papers will be fully reviewed to the standards of the scholarly literature. Publication of accepted manuscripts will occur in a special issue of FED, typically published about 10 months after the technical meeting. However, accepted papers are made available online before they appear in print in the special issue shortly after acceptance. Please see the submission instructions provided below.
Submission Deadlines
You need to submit presentation slides and posters the evening before your presentation or poster session.
Submissions for the special issue of the journal Fusion Engineering and Design (FED) are due by October 1st, 2024.
