16TH WORKSHOP ON MHD STABILITY CONTROL:
"Optimizing and Understanding the Role of Coils for Mode Control"


* Call for Contributed Talks: The program committee has selected and received acceptances for invited talks which are listed below.

Contributed talks are now solicited. Titles (no abstracts needed) should be sent to the organizer.

(Pre-registration forms, available on the conference website, are due by October 28, 2011. Additional form for non-US citizens is due by October 14.)

In addition to the invited and contributed talks we are considering having one or two panel discussions at the workshop, time permitting. Suggestions include "Are internal 3D coils essential to ITER?" and "Understanding the limits on error field correction".

Some invited talk titles tentative and subject to change.
