Ultrahigh Magnetic Fields Ultrahigh Magnetic Field Generation and Measurement Non-Destructive Magnetic Field Technology Science and Applications in Ultrahigh Magnetic Fields Magnetocumulative Generators Autonomous Explosive Pulsed Power PRESENTATIONS Participants are invited to submit original scientific abstracts/papers for Oral, Poster and E- Poster presentation provided that the work is original or extended from a previous presented work. In addition to Invited Plenary Speaker and invited presentations during regular sessions, the Conference technical program will include presentations (Oral, Poster and E-Poster) by all interested participants. Abstracts will be available electronically during the Conference. EAPPC BEAMS MEGAGAUSS Conference requires an exclusive waiver to publish the accepted abstract/paper which you need to grant on behalf of all authors of the abstract/paper as part of your submission of an abstract/paper to the EAPPC BEAMS MEGAGAUSS Conference. Authors are requested to conform to guidelines for submission of abstracts. Abstracts not conforming to the guidelines will not be referred for review. Abstracts must be submitted in English (US/UK spelling) and must also be presented in English. Abstracts will be reviewed by a panel of experts and may be selected for oral, poster or e-poster presentation (or may be

3 rejected). The time allotted for each oral presentation will depend on the session to which the abstract is allocated. Submission of an abstract constitutes a formal commitment by the author to present the abstract in the session and at the time decided upon by the EAPPC BEAMS MEGAGAUSS Conference Scientific Committee. Any change in the presenting author needs to be communicated in the form of a written statement to the EAPPC BEAMS MEGAGAUSS Conference Scientific Committee. If the original presenting author is unable to present the abstract, it is that person s responsibility to ensure that one of the co-authors takes over this role. Failure to present the abstract for other than well-founded reasons will lead to rejection of abstracts submitted at the next EAPPC BEAMS MEGAGAUSS Conference. The registration fee for the presenting author will not be waived. We encourage authors to register via the online registration system at the same time as they submit abstracts. Bearing in mind the various security measures and firewalls, please ensure that s can reach you by adapting your spam filter accordingly. Detailed information, guidelines and recommendations for oral, poster and e-poster presentation, as well as time allotment, date, and hour, will be sent in plenty of time to authors whose abstracts are accepted for presentation at the Conference. TIMELINE The submission process has 5 major steps: Abstract submission: Abstract submission must be done until 1 May Abstract revision: The submitted abstracts will be revised by the scientific committee from 2 May 2016 to 27 May Abstract author s notification: All the authors whose abstracts have been approved will be notified from 28 May 2016 to 3 June Author's registration: All the authors whose abstracts have been approved must register as a participant before 24 June Paper submission: All the papers of the notified approved abstract must be submitted until 22 September 2016.

4 PAPERS/CONFERENCE PROCEEDINGS Papers submitted until the end of the Conference, will be published in an open access database for easy indexing. For publication in the Conference Proceedings authors are expected to submit a paper. In submitting a paper the authors agree with its publication in an open access database for easy indexing. Papers will be published as Proceedings, which will be made available to all attendees after the Conference, in the EAPPC open access website database. For publication in the Proceedings it is required, that the content of the submitted paper is presented by the author or one co-author as indicated in the abstract submission, as poster, e- poster or oral talk at the Conference. Otherwise, papers will NOT be accepted for publication. PREPARATION OF THE PAPER For preparation of your paper please download and use the Paper Template for Conference Proceedings, which is available on the Download Menu of the Conference Webpage. For oral, poster and e-poster presentations the paper may be up to 4 pages in length. For invited talks the paper can be up to 6 pages long. Speakers of Plenary Sessions may write up to 8 pages. SUBMISSION OF THE PAPER Submit your paper in PDF format through the on-line submission system until 22 September Please note that the server will only accept PDF files. When generating the PDF file, please make sure that ALL fonts are embedded into your PDF document. Most likely in the course of PDF file generation you may need to select this option manually. Also, please make sure that your document matches the Paper Template with respect the margins and other layout specifications.

5 SPECIAL JOURNAL ISSUE Special Issue IEEE Transactions on Plasma Science (October 2017). This Special Issue will be dedicated to papers that are substantially revised and lengthened from those of the Conference Proceedings. These papers will undergo a standard peer-review process typical for all IEEE Transactions and Journals. This Special Issue is open to, but not limited to, all attendees of EAPPC/BEAMS/MEGAGAUSS It will cover the same topics as the Conference.
