DESCRIPTION:Theme & Topics \n\n\nThe workshop theme for this year is “K
 ey MHD Control Issues on the path towards a compact fusion pilot plant.”
  This theme embraces the focus of the Community Planning Process\, buildin
 g on the National Academy recommendation that\, “the United States shoul
 d start a national program of accompanying research and technology leading
  to the construction of a compact pilot plant that produces electricity fr
 om fusion at the lowest possible capital cost". The key challenges that ne
 ed to be addressed in the prediction\, avoidance and control of MHD instab
 ilities in order to meet this goal will be discussed. Cutting edge solutio
 ns should be proposed\, with emphasis placed on collaborations necessary t
 o facilitate rapid forward progress in these areas.\n\nThis theme does not
  exclude contributed talks from other relevant areas of MHD stability and 
 control.\n\n \n\nInformation\n\n\nDate and Location\n\n   October 28-30
