Ivan participated in the ICSLS 2024 conference
The ICSLS 2024 conference was held in Japan from 2nd to 7th June at Prefectural Budokan in Otsu. Ivan took part at this conference, where he had two posters. One poster was about the joint work with LHD colleagues on the application of generative artificial intelligence in modeling of emitted tungsten UTA structure in EUV spectral range. The second poster was the presentation of NOVA2LIBS4fusion project results regarding the study of separation of hydrogen and deuterium spectral lines relevant for tritium retention studies.
Finally, he also had the honor of visiting the NIFS facility in Toki. Here, he held a seminar about the results disseminated at the conference, and also took a tour of LHD device that is in operation at NIFS.
Bilja stayed at ENEA Frascati Research Center for two weeks
As a part of the realisation of NOVA2LIBS4fusion project, Biljana had a scientific stay at the ENEA Frascati Research Center. There she had the opportunity to collaborate directly with Dr. Violeta Lazić, where they performed LIBS experiments and the analysis of the experimental results is underway.
Ivan took part in scientific excursion organised by Faculty of Physics
From 29th May until 3rd June Ivan took part in scientific excursion jointly organised by Faculty of Physics of University of Belgrade and Physical Society of Serbia. Firstly they visited Electrotechnical Faculty of University of Brno, where they saw Laboratory for High Voltages and High Currents.
Next they visited Institute of Plasma Physics of Czech Academy of Sciences and Arts where they had a lecture given by prof. Jan Horacek from IPP about fusion and tokamak physics in general. This was followed by the tour through PALS laboratory, where they saw a PW iodine laser system.
The next day they went to Dresden, to visit Helmholtz Zentrum Dresden – Rossendorf scientific institute, where they had opportunity to see free – electron laser system located at ELBE facility, as well as PW laser system DRACO that was recently put in operation.
At the end, they were guests in ELI beams facility, where they saw the most powerful laser systems in the world and had pleasure of hearing interesting lectures from experts employed there.
Ivke visit to NIFS in Japan
From 27th October to 4th November 2019 Ivke visited NIFS (National Institute for Fusion Science) in Toki, Japan, as a member of University of Belgrade delegation headed by rector Ivanka Popović, who signed an Agreement of collaboration between NIFS and University of Belgrade.
Ivke, Bratislav Obradović (Faculty of Physics), Milan Rajković (Institute of Nuclear Sciences Vinca) and Milica Ilić (Faculty of Mechanical Engineering) had a fruitful discussions with Japanese colleagues and made plans for future common projects.
Scientific Trip by Ivke across Central Europe
Ivke participated in Scientific Excursion organized by Physical Faculty, Society of Physicist of Serbia and ETA Turs from 27th May until 1st June 2019.
He visited:
- ELI attosecond in Szeged (HU);
- High voltage laboratory in Brno (CZ), where they work with 120 kA currents and 2 MV voltages;
- Helmholtz‐Zentrum Dresden‐Rossendorf in Dresden (D) seeing Ion Beam Facility and Radiation Source ELBE;
- ELI beams and Institute of Plasma Physics in Prague (CZ), latter one showed him COMPASS tokamak and PALS ion laser.
Research visit in ENEA by Milica
Yesterday, Milica returned from the research collaboration visit in ENEA (Frascati, Italy), where she performed experiments with Violeta Lazić.
Lecture by our Guest
Yesterday, the Laboratory hosted Dr. Predrag Ranitović, who held an open lecture at Institute of Physics Belgrade. The lecture title was “Attosecond Coherent Control of Atomic and Molecular XUV and X-Ray Absorption Processes by Intense Laser Radiation”.
Abstract:
Recent breakthroughs in the ultrafast lasers development have allowed for the opening of new horizons in the ultrafast experimental and theoretical AMO physics. Following these advances, table-top light sources have provided novel ways to achieve a real-time manipulation of the correlated electron/nuclear wavepacket dynamics by means of attosecond XUV and femtosecond IR radiation [1-6]. However, more than fifteen years upon the birth of attosecond physics, and after the Nobel Prize Award for femtochemistry, the concept of attosecond chemistry has not yet been fully realized. In this talk, I will introduce the basic principles of the strong laser-field ionization and generation of attosecond XUV/X-Ray radiation, and show how the attosecond VUV and XUV light sources can be used to coherently manipulate molecular dynamics by means of electron wave packet interferometry [7-9]. The use of attosecond VUV pulse-trains to coherently excite and control the outcome of a simple chemical reaction in a deuterium molecule, in a nonBorn-Oppenheimer regime, presents intriguing new possibilities for bridging the gap between the attosecond physics and attochemistry [10]. Furthermore, I will discuss very recent results that extend the use of the attosecond table-top techniques to the soft X-Ray regime in the water window [11].

Ivke visit to ELI 10 PW facility in Bucharest
Ivke visited the Extreme Light Infrastructure (ELI) in Bucharest with colleagues from Physical Faculty (Belgrade). The visit was realized as part of the project “Laser induced plasmas: Spectroscopic diagnosis and applications in photonic and bio nanotechnologies” through the Romanian Academy of Sciences. The visit was realized from 3rd to 7th October 2016.
