THIRD TRITIUM SCHOOL: 18 - 22 MARCH 2024
The Third Edition of the Tritium School took place in Marseille, at the Jardin du Pharo
The event took place on the 18-22 March 2024.
TITANS was glad to announce the Third Tritium School. It consisted of five days: four days were dedicated to invited lectures and contributed talks, and the last day of the event a visit of ITER was organised. The young generation of researchers working in fusion and fission research and development were encouraged to participate to gain knowledge and present challenges in the field of tritium management in fusion and fission facilities.
THIS EVENT IS PASSED. REGISTRATIONS ARE CLOSED.
Topics:
– Tritium management, inventory and control
– Waste
– Radiotoxicity / ecotoxicity
– Epidemiology of tritium
– Tritium dosimetry
THIRD TRITIUM SCHOOL Registration is open and agenda is available.
