5th Cryogenic Cluster Day

What’s the Big Event on September 19th? No, it’s not the Scottish Referendum (that’s the day before). It’s CCD5 : The 5th Cryogenic Cluster Day. Free to attend, it is a day of seminar, trade show, posters and lab visits, showcasing cryogenics as the wonderful enabling technology it is. CCD 5 is taking place at the heart of the strongest cryogenic community - Rutherford Appleton Laboratory, in the heart of the strongest cryogenic community there is.

With registration starting at 9.30, the first talks are at 10 am - with John Weisend as this year’s opening speaker - John is Chairman of the Cryogenic Society of America (currently celebrating its 50th anniversary) and Senior Scientist at the European Spallation Source in Sweden. Here is John, sporting a Wallace tartan tie. Amongst the other talks, the use of cryogenics will be explored in laser and vacuum applications.

To register to attend the 5th Cryogenic Cluster Day please use ourregistration form.This year’s exhibition looks like being very popular, with a number of new exhibitors - and we’re expecting Ed Vaizey, our local member of parliament, to be able to join us in time to open the exhibition. There will also be new lab visits.

Anyone wishing to present a poster at Cluster Day or exhibit in the table top trade show should contact john.vandore@stfc.ac.uk.
