RADECS 2009: Radiation and its effects on components and systems
Conference: September 14-18, 2009
Scope
For its 10th edition the European Conference on Radiation and Its Effects on Components and Systems, RADECS 2009, will be held on September 14-18 in Bruges, Belgium at the Oud Sint-Jan Art and Congress Conference Centre. The conference features a technical program including oral and posters contributions dedicated towards the latest development and experimental observations related to radiation effects on electronic and photonic components as well as on devices and systems. The conference will also host a technical exhibition, a 1-day short-course and a radiation effect data workshop.
2009 will be an important milestone for the RADECS community as it will correspond to the 10th edition. To celebrate this anniversary a retrospective session will be also organized. The working language of the conference is English.
