The Upcoming ICARST-2025: A Call for Papers

The International Atomic Energy Agency (IAEA) cordially extends an invitation to interested individuals to submit abstracts for the forthcoming Third International Conference on Applications of Radiation Science and Technology (ICARST-2025). The conference is slated to occur from 7–11 April 2025 at the esteemed IAEA headquarters in Vienna, Austria. Please take note that the deadline for abstract submission is set for 28 June 2024.

It is without question that the utilization of ionizing radiation and radioactive materials has notably propelled radiation science and technology across a spectrum of disciplines, including industry, agriculture, and research. These radiation technologies undeniably play an integral role in addressing fundamental human needs such as the enhancement of industrial processes, the management of scarce freshwater resources, improvements to human health and food safety, the preservation of cultural heritages, and the safeguarding of the environment.

The proponents of radiation technology, with their dedication and expertise, guarantee the safe and reliable operation of facilities by adhering to global standards. As the utilization of electron beam accelerators and X-ray sources continues to gain traction, it has become increasingly apparent that novel strategies are imperative to ensure the secure and efficient application of these advancements in technology.

The ICARST-2025 conference aims to furnish a comprehensive overview of significant advancements in radiation science and technology. Furthermore, it seeks to evaluate the current state of the art in the field, as well as assess national, regional, and global initiatives pertaining to the implementation of proven industrial applications of radiation science and technology. In addition to these objectives, the conference will serve as a venue for industry and academic representatives to formulate novel initiatives and establish a clear trajectory for the adoption of radiation technologies to realize specific Sustainable Development Goals (SDGs).

Contributors who are keen on submitting papers for this esteemed conference are urged to select from an array of themes and topics, including:
– Advances in radiation chemistry, radiation science, and technology.
– Radiation-modified advanced materials: from fundamentals to applications.
– Radiation and nuclear technology for imaging and preservation of cultural heritage.
– Radiation processing applications in medical sterilization, tissue banking, food, and agriculture.
– Dosimetry, standards, and quality management of irradiation facilities.
– New generation of radiation sources: gamma rays, electron beam, and X-ray.
– Production and application of radionuclides and tracers for studying industrial and environmental processes and flow visualization.
– Nucleonic control and measurement systems and imaging technologies.
– Non-destructive Testing (NDT) applications for civil engineering, including artificial intelligence, neutron and muon radiography.
– Computational fluid dynamic (CFD) and numerical Residence Time Distribution (RTD) modelling.
– Radiation sciences and technology in environmental monitoring, protection, remediation, and post-natural disaster management.
– Education, training, and certification in radiation science and technology.
– Radiation sciences and technologies success stories in line with the UN SDGs.

Prospective contributors can access guidelines and specific details for abstract submission on the official conference website. The period for abstract submission is scheduled to run from 19 January to 28 June 2024. Contributors should utilize the IAEA web-based submission system (IAEA-INDICO) for submitting their abstracts.

It is important to note that participation in the event is open to individuals designated by an IAEA Member State or those invited by a relevant organization. The IAEA does not impose any registration fee for participants. Individuals interested in registering and partaking in the event can find additional pertinent details on the dedicated ICARST-2025 webpage.
