Dear Colleagues,
International
Conference on Tritium Science and Technology – Tritium 2022 is an opportunity to
have valuable interactions among scientists and engineers, to exchange the
knowledges achieved on all scientific and engineering researches in tritium
science and technology, and to initiate future borderless collaborations.
The International
Conference on Tritium Science and Technology first meeting was in 1980,
in Dayton, Ohio, with the occasion of a national meeting of the American
Nuclear Society. This conference is organized by rotation on three
continents North America, Europe, and Asia every three years. Since then,
another twelve conferences have taken place all around the world: Dayton, USA
(1985), Toronto, Canada (1988), Albuquerque, USA (1991), Belgirate, Italy,
(1995), Tsukuba, Japan (2001), Baden-Baden, Germany (2004), Rochester, USA
(2007), Nara, Japan (2010), Nice, France (2013), Charleston, USA (2016) and Busan,
Korea, (2019). Hundreds of participants from many countries of North America,
Europe, and Asia attended these conferences. The accepted papers were published
in a special issue of the journal “Fusion Science and Technology”, a
journal of the American Nuclear Society.
In 2019, in
Busan, Korea, the Steering Committee of the conference decided to give the honour
of hosting the 13th edition of the National Research and Development
Institute for Cryogenic and Isotopic Technologies in Ramnicu Vâlcea, Romania.
”Romania may not be as
well-known in North America as the Western European countries, but that doesn't
mean it is an insignificant part of the world.” (source: http://romaniatourism.com/did-you-know.html”
Bucharest, the Romanian capital is: ”…a happy combination of
its past eras, it breathes the bohemian perfume of little Paris, as it was once
called, boasts edifices of modern architecture, including remnants of its
former communist regime (1945-1989), and is developing the attributes of a
metropolis.”

We consider
that even if, in 2022, will be available the necessary tools to control the
COVID-19 pandemic, however, we must be prepared for a hybrid conference.
The Technical
Organizing Committee, the Local Organizing Committee and the International
Steering Committee wishes you, all the participants, a successful conference
and a wonderful springtime week in Bucharest.
Yours sincerely,
Mihai VARLAM
General Conference Chair, Tritium
