IEE MEGAGAUSS XI CONFERENCE 2006
  10-Sep-2006 - 14-Sep-2006
Imperial College, London, UK

The Megagauss XI Conference is the latest in a line of conferences that date back to 1965, when Megagauss I took place in Italy at Frascati (Roma). Since then subsequent conferences have brought together distinguished scientists and technologists from many countries to present their latest theoretical and experimental studies in such areas as the generation of ultrahigh magnetic fields, the development of flux compression generators, liner implosions for fusion problems, high-current switching technologies, and the application of these techniques in many areas of science and technology.
