Dear EU-US I-mode team,
we will have our next I-mode WG meeting on *Tuesday 23rd September at
10:30 am EDT / 4:30 pm CET / 7:30 am PDT*. Zoom connection details:
https://zoom.us/j/94810547070?pwd=Z1N5L2U5N1BmYUYwQW4xSlNldHZwUT09
ID: 948-1054-7070 / PW: 021741
The agenda of the meeting is:
* D. Fajardo: initial report on detached / high-radiative fraction
Argon-seeded I-modes in AUG
* Discussion on I-mode experimental proposals for 2026-2027 (and more
broadly proposed task work)
Concerning the last point, there are three open calls for experiments
with deadlines approaching soon: AUG internal call for 2026 campaign
(deadline 7th October), WEST internal call for 2026 campaign (deadline
3rd October) and EUROfusion WPTE call (covering AUG, WEST, MAST-U and
TCV) for both 2026 and 2027 (deadline 10th of October). You can find the
relevant documents in attachment. A call for 2026 DIII-D proposals is
expected later this fall.
Towards the end of the year we will hold another meeting where there
will be reports on the 2025 tasks (so mainly multi-machine confinement
time, separatrix operational space + summary of experimental results at
DIII-D and hopefully WEST).
We also created a mailing list, mainly to facilitate our job. From now
on, we can use the email address eu-us-wg-imode(a)lists.euro-fusion.org to
exchange emails with the whole group. This should include all those
who have signed up and been getting WG emails via large cc list - please
let us know of issues or changes to your preferred address.
Best regards,
Davide and Amanda
