Workshop on Spintronics SPIN ARGENTINA 2022

International Workshop on Spintronics – Spin Argentina 2022 started today.

Between November 7 and 11, around 125 participants from different parts of the world will enjoy in 36 invited talks, 24 contributed, 56 posters, and between presenters four 2022 IEEE Magnetic Society Distinguished Lecturers.

The participants will exchange their latest results and ideas about  #magnetism#magnetic materials and their applications! In these 4 weeks of classes and experiments, they will explore different aspects of magnetism and spintronics.

The Workshop includes two networking activities: Meet the experts on Monday at 8:30 pm at a location to be defined, and Women in Magnetism on Tuesday at 8 pm at the same hotel as the conference.

Meet the experts provides PhD students and PostDocs with an opportunity to participate in a small-group discussion and get advice on career planning, technical paper writing, publication, job searches, research opportunities, or societal involvement. NETWORKING ACTIVITIES sponsored by the IEEE Magnetics Society Initiative to “Promote Magnetism in LATAM”.

Women in Magnetism event will propose a discussion about motivation programs for girls/young students in different countries The discussed topics will be: (1) the motivation of young female students for STEM careers (from primary school to university), and (2) Gender equality and science: from laws to social and work visibility.

This Spin Argentina event is possible thanks to the « historical » support of Gen Tatara, which has been joined this year by IEEE Magnetic Society and IOP Publishing Latinoamerica, CONICET, INN, CNEA, Fundación Balsiero, Instituto Balseiro, and MINCYT. The school is actively supported by the Ultra-Thin Magneto Thermal-SensorIng (ULTIMATE-I) project of the European Commission and in particular its participating organizations French Centre National de la Recherche Scientifique (CNRS), and the University of Zaragoza (UNIZAR), coordinator.

SPIN Argentina Workshop follows the School of Magnetism and Magnetic Materials, also supported by ULTIMATE-I, and many teachers and students will join the conference creating synergies.

Two weeks to Workshop on Spintronics SPIN ARGENTINA 2022

International Workshop on Spintronics – Spin Argentina 2022 is two weeks away. We will be around 125 participants from different parts of the world!!

We will have the four 2022 IEEE Magnetic Society Distinguished Lecturers, 36 invited speakers, 24 oral contributions, 56 posters, and about 10 more attendees so far.

Please also check the website, https://fisica.cab.cnea.gov.ar/spin2022/, for updates.

This Spin Argentina event is possible thanks to the « historical » support of Gen Tatara, which has been joined this year by our project Ultimate-I (Ultra Thin Magneto Thermal Sensoring supported by the European Union), and the IEEE Magnetic Society, as well as IOP Publishing Latinoamerica, CONICET, INN, CNEA, Fundación Balsiero, Instituto Balseiro, and MINCYT.

This has allowed us to keep costs to a minimum and to be able to give about 30 waivers to students and young post-docs from different parts of the world. More recently, thanks to the IEEE initiative to Promote Magnetism in LATAM, we can support partially covering travel and accommodation expenses for LATAM students. And to organize networking activities.

We have two networking activities: Meet the experts on Monday at 8:30 pm at a location to be defined, and Women in Magnetism on Tuesday at 8 pm at the same hotel as the conference. Everyone is invited to participate. More details of these events will be shared later and will also be posted on the website.

School of Nanoscience and Nanotechnology 2022

Between October 17 and 28, the « V School of Nanoscience and Nanotechnology » takes place, organized at the Institute of Nanoscience and Nanotechnology (CONICET-CNEA) / the Constituyentes Atomic Center (San Martín, Buenos Aires Province). This year, the School is focused on the growth and characterization of nanomaterials in the form of thin films. The school is supported by the Ultra-Thin Magneto Thermal-SensorIng (ULTIMATE-I) project of the European Commission, French Centre National de la Recherche Scientifique (CNRS), and the University of Zaragoza (UNIZAR).

Nanoscience and nanotechnology are advancing rapidly, forming a disciplinary area with a deep impact both at the level of basic and applied science, providing solutions for the main problems facing humanity, such as the generation, conversion and storage of energy, the caring for the environment, the diagnosis and treatment of diseases or the storage and processing of information.  The School of Nanoscience and Nanotechnology (ENN)  will contribute to the education or training of new generations of scientists and technologists in the different manufacturing techniques, characterization, assembly and control of nanosystems, as well as the different calculation tools. The activity is aimed at doctoral and post-doctoral students and young researchers interested in nanoscience and nanotechnology and in the development of nanomaterials and devices. This opportunity will allow ULTIMATE-I researchers to present tutorials on thin film growth, nanocharacterization by XRD and TEM, device nanofabrication, nanomagnetism, and transport measurements.

The school is aimed at doctoral students, post-doctoral students and young researchers interested in the area of ​​nanoscience and nanotechnology.

The classes will be given by project members Laura Steren (CONICET), Myriam Aguirre (UNIZAR), Javier Briático (CNRS), Juan Bonaparte (CNEA) and Diego Rubí (CONICET):

Magnetism and Magnetic Materials

José Antonio Balseiro School

supported by European Commission ULTIMATE-I project

The José Antonio Balseiro School « Magnetism and Magnetic Materials » will be held from October 10th to November 4th, 2022.

The Balseiro Institute offers a wide range of training courses aimed at students and graduates of physics, engineering, and related subjects. One of these initiatives is the « José Antonio Balseiro School », which takes place in October and offers scholarships for participation. The scholarships provided consist of financial assistance for travel and accommodation expenses during the stay of those selected. Applications are open until June 3rd.

Students in the last stage of their university careers, who have recently completed their undergraduate studies and are pursuing a postgraduate degree in science or engineering from Argentina and Latin American countries are eligible to apply.

« The aim of the School is for participants to acquire a solid basic knowledge of magnetism and magnetic materials, and at the same time to learn about the most recent phenomena and developments in the field, » said Dr. Mara Granada, a Balseiro Institute graduate, and lecturer, who is a member of the School’s organizing committee.

This activity is organized by the Balseiro Institute’s Secretariat for Outreach and Innovation. Each year it is held on a different theme. The school is organized by teachers, i.e., researchers or active technologists, from the Balseiro Institute, an academic institution dependent on the National Atomic Energy Commission (CNEA) and the National University of Cuyo (UNCuyo).

In 2019, the theme was « Telecommunications »; in 2018, « Applied Physics and Technological Innovation »; and in 2017, « Quantum Fields, Condensed Matter, and Information Theory ». In 2020, the topic « Magnetism and Magnetic Materials » was proposed but had to be suspended due to the pandemic and now the organization has been resumed, according to the organizing committee.

Applicants must have passed at least 75% of their degree course at registration. « Those who were selected in 2020 must register again if they wish to participate this year, » said Granada, who is a CONICET researcher at the Magnetic Resonance Division of the Bariloche Atomic Centre.

According to the Balseiro’s website (www.ib.edu.ar), the application form must be filled in and the following documents must be attached: a CV, a transcript of completed subjects, and a short letter explaining the motivation of the person interested in participating in the School. A letter of recommendation is also required.

The selection process results will be communicated via email on 14 August. Scholarships will be awarded according to each applicant’s academic merits and affinity with this year’s theme.

The School’s program lasts four weeks from Monday to Friday, with theoretical and practical classes and practical work in the laboratories of the Bariloche Atomic Centre. At the end of the stay, a theoretical evaluation will be taken and a poster presentation of the laboratory work will be made. More information at
