The 17th International Reflectometry Workshop (IRW17) will take place at the York Plasma Institute, University of York, UK between 1st June 2026 and 4th June 2026.
No registration fee will be charged for attendance at the workshop.
Scope
This workshop is an in-person meeting for discussions among experts of microwave reflectometry and related topics. It brings together experts, master- and PhD-students with the aim to discuss common interests in reflectometry and plasma physics. The scientific objective is to exchange the latest results in plasma physics, theory and simulation of microwave propagation in plasmas, as well as the latest achievements in hard- and software development for reflectometry and radar applications. This workshop also invites scientists working on the design and construction of active microwave components to participate. Stimulating discussions build the heart of this workshop. This workshop publishes proceedings for later citation.
Procedure for attendance
Please take note of the Important Dates. Attendance is restricted to those participants whose abstracts are approved by the organising committees. Do not book travel until your abstract has been approved.
Location and travel
The Workshop will take place at the York Plasma Institute, on the University of York's west campus, a short bus ride from York rail station and the historic city centre. The city of York is well connected by rail to London, Edinburgh & Manchester. If coming from continental Europe, why not travel by train the entire way? There are a range of hotels available in the centre of York or closer to campus for those who prefer an even shorter morning commute. Please refer to the links on the left for more details.
