Preliminary announcement (3rd version.2021.03.29)

5th Asia-Pacific Conference on Plasma Physics(AAPPS-DPP2021 on-line E-conference, Sept. 26-Oct. 1, 2021)
http://aappsdpp.org/DPP2021/index.html[1] Scope of the AAPPS-DPP2021: AAPPS-DPP2021 is an international plasma physics conference
under the auspice of AAPPS-DPP. The conference will be physics oriented and provide
interdisciplinary and in-depth scientific discussions among and in various fields of plasma physics
and applications.
[2] Organization: AAPPS-DPP (http://aappsdpp.org/AAPPSDPPF/) is the organizing body of thisconference. The AAPPS-DPP 2021 annual conference will be a remote on-line e-conference using
Zoom systems similar to AAPPS-DPP 2020, which was quite successful with 930 participants fromall over the world.

[8] Program overview
Program time is based on Japan time for AAPPSDPP2021 e-conference. However, participants are expected tojoin the conference from various places in the world including Australia, China, ASEAN, India, Bangladesh,Pakistan, Nepal, Russia, EU countries, UK, Brazil, US. The e-conference runs from Sunday (Sep. 26) to Friday(Oct. 1) as shown in Table 1.
On-line Reception (Sept. 26(Sun)):Kyushu University (M. Shiratani) will organize an on-line reception in the morning (inc. US participants) andafternoon (inc. European participants). Detail will be announced later.
AAPPS-DPP General Assembly (Sept. 26(Sun)):AAPPS-DPP general assembly will be held to appoint new Member of Board of Directors, Auditor and approvalof budget balance. Also activity reports will be given.
Opening session (Sept. 27 (Mon)): Opening session is 90 minutes, which includes opening addresses andintroduction of AAPPS-DPP Prize and Award winners such as S. Chandrasekhar Prize, Plasma Innovation Prize,
U40 and U30 awards.
Plenary Talk: Plenary talk is 30 minutes including a one minute introduction by session char and 4 minutes
discussion. Total number of plenary talks is 39 and distributed among three time zones so that we can accommodate
outstanding talks from all over the world. Audience of plenary talks are general plasma physicists and do not know
details in specific field. Therefore, speakers should give some tutorial and minimize jargon specific to one’s own
field and should limit scientific contents to atmost a few outstanding works.
Topical sessions: There are 9 sub-disciplines; Cross Disciplinary (Kinetic Alfven Wave) (CD), Fundamental (F),Basic (B), Applied (A), Laser (L), Space/Geomagnetism (SG), Solar/Astro (SA), Magnetic Fusion 1(core plasma)(MF1), Magnetic Fusion 2 (edge/divertor) (MF2).
Here,
Fundamental: All “Fundamental disciplines" common to various plasma application fields, such as plasma turbulence, MHD/Kinetic MHD and reconnection,
Dynamo Theory, Gyrokinetic theory, Collisional transport, et al and Mathematical plasma physics. The Fundamental session welcomes papers on simulationand experiment which address fundamental questions in plasma physics
Basic: All common “methods" in plasma physics such as plasma diagnostics, plasma simulation, plasma sources. In this era of exascale computing, applicationof AI and Machine Learning as well as BigData methods to plasmas are strongly encouraged. Basic also covers unique & boundary category of plasma physics
such as dusty/strongly couples/quantum plasma physics, non-neutral plasmas, A&M in plasma and other emerging plasma physics.

Topical Plenary Talk: Each subdiscipline may have 40 minutes topical plenary talks including a one minuteintroduction by the session char and 5 minutes discussion. Topical plenary talks may be either in single discipline(L, CD, F) or as joint sessions (A+B, SA+SG, MF1+MF2). Speaker can assume audience knows key words in thecommon fields.
Invited talk: Invited talk is 30 minutes including a one minute introduction by the session chair and 4 minutes
discussion. Do not use crowded viewgraphs with so much information, that you have no time to describe it all.
Oral talk: Oral talk is 15 minutes including 3 minutes introduction and discussion.
Poster presentation: Poster Web site is prepared. Participants can access the poster by clicking poster ID. Audiencecan input questions and comments. E-mail is automatically sent to presenter and presenter should input reply by theend of the day. We may consider one page/ 3minutes presentation for the introduction of poster. Approximately
20% will be selected as poster prize, whose gift is a Springer book (<100USD).
Plenary and invited speakers can be nominated by any plasma physicists not limited to AAPPS-DPP members.
Based on competitive nominations, plenary and invited speakers will be selected from nominations of plenary andinvited speakers. Oral and poster will be selected from contributed abstract submissions by each sub-disciplinary
Program Committee.

[9] Nomination of Plenary and Invited Speakers
Plenary and invited nomination site is https://www.gakkai-web.net/aappsdpp_nm/
Both nomination by other or self-nomination are acceptable. Use template at the site.
Conference has one-oral rule. So multiple nomination is not accepted, while additional poster presentation is
encouraged. Do not forget/delete ID and PW so that you can modify nomination.

Web site for contributed, plenary and invited abstract: to be announced later.
[10] On-line conference
Zoom Meeting will be used for all sessions. Plenary will use Zoom Meeting with maximum 1,000
participants. Topical sessions will use 9 Zoom Meeting with maximum 500 participants. Nine oral sessions
and one for pre-poster presentation. Manuals will be prepared for Presenter, Chairs, Chair-support, Audience.
Network: Connect to stable network. If not, application may be terminated. If you had network problem lastyear, please prepare way to improve your network.
Before conference: Please download Zoom application. If you use Web browser for Zoom, use Google Chrome.
Conference Web access: Conference site is accessible through “My Page” created for registered participants.
During presentation: Session chair will make all “mute” except host and speakers. After the talk, session chair
will unmute all to start discussion.
Chat: Audience can input chat during presentation.

Microphone: Use earphone to minimize howling when you turn on the microphone for talk and question.
Session close: After the end of Q&A, session will be closed by host. All participants will be out automatically.
Termination: Meeting room may be terminated and changed if we have Zoom Bombing or big noise.
Copyright and Cloud recording: All presentation will be automatically recorded and its copyright belongs toorganizer and authors. It is not allowed for participants to record and use for other purpose unless it is allowed byorganizer and author. Last year, there are number of issues related to editing/deleting unwilling records and took
long time to upload to conference Web site. If the author do not want recording, it must be informed to Zoom teamand there might be a consideration for program allocation to reduce editing works of recorded file.
