The fields of interest of the NPSS include Nuclear Science and Engineering (including radiation detection and monitoring instrumentation, radiation effects, nuclear biomedical applications, particle accelerators, and instrumentation for nuclear power generation), and Plasma Science and Engineering (including plasma dynamics, thermonuclear fusion, plasma sources, relativistic electron beams, laser plasma interactions, diagnostics, and solid state plasmas). The NPSS sponsors seven conferences and two peer reviewed journals. More About NPSS...
Message From the President
The Nuclear and Plasma Sciences Society is one of 38 Societies within the IEEE and is devoted to the advancement of electrical and electronic engineering in nuclear and plasma sciences. It encompasses a broad range of interests in these fields which includes radiation instrumentation, medical imaging sciences, radiation effects, plasma sciences and its applications, fusion technology, pulsed power systems, particle accelerator science and technology, and computer applications for nuclear and plasma sciences. It provides for the dissemination and exchange of information in these areas by sponsoring numerous conferences, workshops and symposia each year, and through the publication of important new results in several IEEE transactions and journals. These activities provide a forum where members of our community can met and interact with colleagues not only in their own field, but also in other related fields, where they can expand their knowledge and learn about new emerging technologies.
