CnnTurk: World famous physicists

Posted by ICSM in Media Coverage on June 4th, 2009

CnnTurk has covered ICSM 2010 recently with an headline : “World famous physicists will meet in Antalya” CnnTurk continues: “2nd International Conference on Superconductivity and Magnetism will be held in Antalya with participation of several Nobel Prize awarded physicists amongst other world famous science literature editors.”

Dünyaca ünlü fizikçiler Antalya’da buluşacak

Nobel Fizik Ödülü Jüri üyeleri ile Nobel ödüllü fizikçilerin de katılacağı 2. Uluslararası Süper İletkenlik ve Magnetizma Kongresi, 2010 yılında Antalya’da yapılacak.

Ankara Üniversitesi Fen Fakültesi Fizik Bölümü Öğretim Üyesi ve Konferans Düzenleme Komitesi Başkanı Prof. Dr. Ali Gencer, Antalya’da AA muhabirine kongre ile ilgili bilgi verdi.

Prof. Dr. Gencer, 109 ülkeden 800′e yakın fizikçinin katılacağı 2. Uluslararası Süper İletkenlik ve Magnetizma Kongresi’nin, gelecek yıl 25-30 Nisan tarihleri arasında Antalya’da gerçekleştirileceğini bildirdi. Bu alanda dünyada söz sahibi olmuş, Nobel Fizik Ödülü jüri başkan ve üyelerinin de katılacağı kongrede, dünyada çığır açan, devrim niteliğindeki teknolojilerin tartışılacağını
bildiren Prof. Dr. Gencer, şunları söyledi:

“Kongrede, elektriğin kayıpsız şekilde bir yerden bir yere nakli, hızı saatte 600 kilometreye yaklaşan trenlerin (uçan trenler) yapımı, Magnetik Rezonans Görüntüleme sistemi ana ünitesini oluşturan iletken magnetizin tasarımı (mıknatıs), elektrik taşınması sırasında ani yükselen ve alçalmasında ortaya çıkan arızaların önlenmesine yönelik akım sınırlayıcı cihazların tasarımı gibi konular tartışılacak. Kongreye, fizik konusunda dünyaca ünlü dergilerin editörleri de katılacak.”

Kongrenin ilkinin geçen yıl yine Antalya’nın Side beldesinde düzenlendiğini ve 400 bilim adamının katıldığını hatırlatan Prof. Dr. Gencer, “Antalya, turizmde olduğu gibi kongrelerin de merkezi olmaya başladı. Antalya’yı bir bilim merkezi haline getirmek, Türkiye’nin de bu konularda çalışan bilim adamları olduğunu göstermek istiyoruz” dedi.

Welcome and Invitation

Posted by ICSM in ICSM 2010 on June 3rd, 2009

Dear Distinguished Colleagues,

On behalf of the Organizing and Program Committees, I am very happy to invite you to participate in International Conference on Superconductivity and Magnetism, ICSM2010 to be held in Antalya between 20-30 April, 2010 with a spring school (20-25 April, 2010) and educational courses prior to the conference (25-30 April). Members of the international scientific and engineering communities interested in recent developments in superconductivity, magnetism, magnetic materials and related technologies are cordially invited to attend the Conference and contribute to its technical sessions. The wide ranging technical topics can be found on the conference web-site. We do hope that ICSM2010 will provide a platform, where solid state physicists, chemists and material scientists, engineers and other professionals meet together for mutual benefits and collaboration.

We look forward to welcoming you at the magical city of Antalya, where you will certainly get a real treat in terms of science, career, culture and social aspects.

Prof. Dr. Ali GENCER (Director)
