Giuseppe Calió, a PhD student at Politecnico di Milano in the Department of Mathematics (DMAT), and Fabio Ragazzi, a PhD student at Alma Mater Studiorum – Università di Bologna, both members of the IPROP research team, participated in the 27th International Plasma School on “Low Temperature Plasma Physics: Basics and Applications.”
From October 5th to 10th, they joined over 50 researchers from Europe and beyond to discuss the latest developments in low-temperature plasma physics. The event, held at the Physics Center in Bad Honnef, Germany, provided an occasion to explore advancements in plasma-surface interactions, as well as cutting-edge diagnostics and theoretical modeling.
Additionally, this conference offered an excellent opportunity to present the objectives of the IPROP project and to network with fellow researchers and experts, fostering future collaborations that could drive groundbreaking discoveries.
The IPROP project, funded by the EIC Pathfinder, aims to develop ion plasma engines for airships, with the potential to revolutionize atmospheric transport and High Altitude Pseudo-Satellite (HAPS) missions.
