The 2nd “Plasma Zonheuvel” conference, short for “NNV Plasma Physics Symposium Zonheuvel”, is part of the renewed conference series that revives and unites the two former 2-day annual plasma physics meetings in The Netherlands: the series in Lunteren (NNV Section meeting) and the one in Rolduc (WELT-PP).
The Lunteren series brought together all plasma physics groups in The Netherlands, including fusion research. The Rolduc series focused on low-temperature plasma physics, while also involving nearby groups from Germany and Belgium. After the disruption caused by the Covid pandemic, the series successfully restarted in Rolduc.
With the 2nd edition, we continue this broader tradition, changing venue from Rolduc to conference center Zonheuvel, once again covering the wide spectrum of plasma physics research carried out in groups across The Netherlands, Belgium, and Germany (and beyond).
The conference is organized by the section Sectie Plasma- en Gasontladingsfysica (NNV-PG) of the Netherlands’ Physical Society (NNV).
Registration will open in December.
The conference will take place April 1st and 2nd, 2026.
Start abstract submission and registration: To be announced (~mid-December 2025)
