这是一位法国物理学家（他现在负责欧洲物理学会等离子体物理分会，笔者在《磁重联漫谈（14）：“离子撕裂模”迷雾》一文中曾提到他对空间等离子体物理的重要贡献）刚刚发来的，希望告知中国等离子体物理学界为欧洲物理学会等离子体物理奖提名推荐中国同行。转在这里，请等离子体物理学界同仁广为宣传、转载。

 

谢谢！

Dear Professor WANG,

.

As last year, as a member of the board of the EPS -PPD (European Physical Society - Plasma Physics Division), I am in charge of diffusing the announcement of a new EPS-PPD Prize which has been created in 2008 by our division. The description of the prize, its motivations and the procedure to apply are described in the announcement below.

 

May I ask you to diffuse this announcement within your whole Plasma Physics community in China?

 

We would like to encourage Plasma Physicists (all fields mixed: Magnetic/inertial fusion plasmas, Space plasmas, low temperature and dusty plasmas, Basic plasmas and astrophysical plasmas, etc.) from China to apply.

 

If complementary information is necessary feel free to contact me.

 

With my anticipated thanks

 

Sincerely yours;

 

Bertrand Lembege

Dear Colleague,

 

Please find below the announcement of the 2011-EPS Prize:

 

European Physical Society - Plasma Physics Innovation Prize

 

You will find below all information concerning this new Prize created in 2008, and the procedure requested to apply.  We would greatly appreciate if you could largely diffuse this announcement inside and outside your laboratory/community.

 

With our anticipated thanks

 

Sincerely, yours

 

Bertrand Lembège, Jorg Winter, Holger Kernsten and Carlos Hidalgo

"European Physical Society Plasma Physics Innovation Prize - 2011'

Research in Plasma Physics has multiple and rich outcomes with direct and/or indirect applications. These applications, which are sometimes inconspicuous and even unknown to the layman, can have significant impacts on daily human life as well as on economic activity. Surprisingly, some of the impacts seem far from the basic Plasma Physics research which gave birth to these key original ideas, but nonetheless represent exemplary innovative strategies. Today, applications of Plasma Physics flourish in vastly different domains, such as radioactive waste transmutation, medicine, isotope separation processes (with fundamental applications to cancer therapy), infection treatment, material processing, torch cutting and welding, flat TV screens, lighting systems, thrusters, as well as countless other medical, industrial and engineering applications. Within the general framework of the relationship between "Science and Society", there is a strong effort on communication between research and public domains in many countries.
The European Physical Society is keenly aware of these important applications. As a dual gesture of stimulation and recognition, a new annual prize has been created by the Plasma Physics Division of the European Physical Society. This prize targets research which has demonstrably led to robust innovative applications or important effects on society. Nominations in any fields are encouraged.

Establishment and Support

The prize has been established in 2008 and supported by the Plasma Physics Division of the European Physics Society. The Prize is given once a year and consists of 3000 euros and a certificate citing the contributions made by the récipient. More information and previous winners can be found at : http://plasma.ciemat.es/innovation.shtml

 

 

Rules and Eligibility:
Nominees need not now be working on the topics. Any work may be submitted. The recognized contribution may be a product, a process or a tool enabling practical application issued directly from plasma physics field. Nominees need not to be EPS members. Nominees candidatures are submitted by nominators as detailed below. Proposals for prize sharing are also admitted. There is no restriction in terms of geography and/or nationality.

Nominations and Selection Process
A broad spectrum of nominations and in particular from smaller companies/institutions/National and/or Universities laboratories as well as larger ones is encouraged to apply. To complete the nomination, you (the nominator) are asked to provide the following documents :

1. The references of the nominee (Name, firstname, full professional address, email address, phone and fax numbers) .
2. The topical group (within the Plasma Physics division) best qualified to assess the nomination
3. A suggested citation (maximum 250 characters) .
4. A supporting summary describing the significance of the nominee's work (this description is limited to 2 pages) .
5. Nominee's principal publications (at most 10) .
6. Nominee's other contributions (main invited talks, patents, professional service, etc.) .
7. Nominee's academic background .
8. Nominee's employment background .
9. Nominee's professional honors .
10. Your name, full address and email address .
11. Your letter of support (maximum 1 page)
12. Additional letters of support (at most 2 beyond yours); maximum 1 page each.

These materials are due by November 7th 2010. The Prize will be presented during the forthcoming EPS meeting to be held in Strasbourg (France, June 2011). Finalist nominations will remain active through three prize cycles. Self nominations are also encouraged.
