Supporting the next generation: The SAXFUSION Summer School makes a stop at the LHM
The first SAXFUSION Summer School brought together 27 young researchers and students for five days in Saxony. The programme included lectures, laboratory visits and discussions on fusion energy, innovative materials, precision technologies, additive manufacturing and energy systems.
One of the highlights of the summer school took the participants to Mittweida. At the Laser Institute at Mittweida University of Applied Sciences, they gained insights into modern imaging technologies at the nanoscale. The focus was on sophisticated radiation sources, measurement methods and algorithms that can be used to visualise and analyse the tiniest structures. A laboratory tour provided a practical insight into current research work.
Events: SAXFUSION ā Future Day
At the SAXFUSION Future Day on nuclear fusion at the Fraunhofer IWS in Dresden, representatives from research, industry and academia came together to discuss current developments and future challenges. The Laser Institute at Mittweida University of Applied Sciences was represented at the event by Professor Silvio Fuchs and Eric Syrbe, who used the occasion to engage in professional exchange and establish new contacts.
The event made it clear that nuclear fusion has long since evolved from a vision into a technology with concrete industrial prospects. Consequently, the demands placed on materials, coatings, manufacturing processes, measurement technology and automation are also growing. It is precisely here that numerous opportunities for collaboration arise for applied research at the LHM.
The Laser Institute at Mittweida University of Applied Sciences intends to actively contribute its expertise to this growing field of innovation in future, thereby opening up new areas of research and technological development.
