MOHEMEDREZA TAGHADOSI
From 9/7-31/12/2013, Mr. Mohemedreza Taghadosi, a PhD student from Iran, is a guest at the Department of Space and Astrophysics (TP4). Mr. Taghadosi is an expert on the calculation of the nonlinear evolution of filamentation instability in current-driven plasmas. In a talk at the TP4 chair seminar, he presented a very interesting method that can also be used for our work on cosmic magnetic field generation by filamentation instabilities.

INTERNATIONAL CONFERENCE ON PHENOMENA IN IONIZED GASES (ICPIG) 2013
The XXXI edition of the International Conference on Phenomena in Ionized Gases (ICPIG) is held in Spain for the first time after the first ICPIG that took place back in 1953 in Oxford (UK) 60 years ago. It takes place in Granada from July 14th-19th, 2013. The ICPIG, a tradicional International conference with a remarkably long history, is held every two years and covers nearly all aspects of phenomena in ionizad gases from fundamentals to applications. The ICPIG topics are grouped into four major sections (A. Fundamentals; B. Modeling, Simulation and Diagnostics; C. Plasma Sources and Discharge Regimes; D. Applications) with each major section structured into several sub-topics.
This prestigious conference has been the forum for discussion of nearly all fields in plasma science since 1953, from the fundamentals of the interaction of charged particles with molecules to plasma chemistry, surface treatment and thin film technology, plasma medicine, light sources, plasma assisted combustión, plasma material processing, atmospheric and stellar plasmas, environmental protection and pollution control, plasma aerodynamics, and non-thermal plasmas in fusion devices.
Dr. Teresa de los Arcos, Dr. Carles Corbella Roca, Simon Große-Kreul, and Dr. Ante Hecimovic represent the SFB-TR87 and the Research Department "Plasmas with Complex Interactions".

40TH EUROPEAN PHYSICAL SOCIETY CONFERENCE ON PLASMA PHYSICS
The 40th EPS Conference on Plasma Physics takes place in Helsinki, Finland, from July 1st—5th 2013. This conference continues the series of European Physical Society (EPS) conferences on Plasma Physics, encompassing the fields of fusion research, magnetic confinement fusion, beam plasmas, laser-plasma interaction and inertial confinement fusion, dusty and low temperature plasmas, as well as space and astrophysical plasmas and basic plasmas. Ruhr-University Bochum is represented by Jun.-Prof. Dr. Jan Benedikt, presenting the progress in the research of plasma-surface interaction of atmospheric-pressure plasmas (results of the Research Unit FOR 1123 “Physics of Microplasmas”), and PhD student Sascha Ridder, who is presenting work with the title “FlareLab: Short time-scale diagnostics for rapidly moving magnetic flux Tubes.“

THOMAS GAUTIER
Dipl.-Phys. Thomas Gautier is doing his PhD in the framework of the co-tutele with the University of Versailles Saint Quentin, France, at Prof. Dr. Jörg Winter's Chair of Experimental Physics II and is again a guest at RUB from June 24-27, 2013. He is working on the question of plasma polymerization of nanoparticles, the main chemical reactions leading to the formation of these particles,and their chemical composition. For this purpose he uses infrared spectroscopy, chromatography, XPS and mass spectroscopy. The goal is to understand how the nanoparticles are formed in the atmosphere of titanium.
