The 9th IAEA Technical Meeting on Energetic Particles in Magnetic Confinement Systems was held in Takayama, Japan Wednesday, 9 November 2005 through Friday, 11 November 2005 and is hosted by the National Institute for Fusion Science, Japan. Previous meetings in this series were held in Kiev (1989), Aspenas (1991), Trieste (1993), Princeton (1995), JET/Abingdon (1997), Naka (1999), Gohtenburg (2001) and San Diego (2003).

The purpose of the meeting is to discuss the status of experimental and theoretical works on suprathermal electrons and ions in a wide variety of magnetic confinement geometries. Topics include the formation and transport of energetic particles, the collective instabilities they drive, their effects on the plasma, and energetic particle diagnostics.
(A) Alpha particles physics,

(B) Transport of energetic particles,

(C) Effects of energetic particles in magnetic confinement fusion devices,

(D) Collective phenomena: Alfven eigenmodes, energetic particle modes and others

(E) Runaway electrons and disruptions,

(F) Diagnostics for energetic particles.

Some papers and talks are available:
