Using effectively and systematically ultra intense lasers and high power lasers in Japan, in USA, at Rutherford Appleton Laboratory in UK, and at LULI in France, we will advance the joint research. Moreover, as for the calculation code in each country, we would like to develop common code for effective and efficient research. In our project, we will make joint research with the condition of joining young scientists and doctoral course graduate students.
We are planning 5 workshops related to U.K., France, and U.S. Three will be held in Japan, the others in US and France.
Researcher exchange will be performed through the dispatch for the above-mentioned joint research and seminar participation. Especially joint experiments are expected to encourage on-site level exchange by participation of young researchers and doctoral course graduate students. Moreover, young researchers (doctoral course graduate students) will be dispatched to Oxford University in UK, LULI in France, and etc. for few months (Young humane resources). For giving the opportunity of attending the international meeting and standing at the stage of presentation, young researchers (doctoral course graduate student etc.) will be dispatched to the 36th European Physical Society (EPS) conferences on Plasma Physics (June 29 - July 3, 2009, Sofia, Bulgaria), Washington DC., US), Inertial Fusion Sciences and Applications (September 6-11, 2009, San Francisco, US), and 51st Annual Meeting of the APS Division of Plasma Physics (November 2-6, 2009, Atlanta, US). Furthermore, Japanese coordinator is going to core and main cooperating institutions in Europe, and U.S. to discuss and start the action for strategical international relationship.
Besides these plans, As Young humane resources' event, young scientists, mainly graduate students will be dispatched to a jointly held winter school (March, 2010, France).
