9^th INTERNATIONAL SYMPOSIUM ON GASEOUS DIELECTRICS

The 9^th International Symposium on Gaseous Dielectrics will be held May 21-25 2001, at Turf Valley Resort & Conference Center, Ellicott City, Maryland, USA. The purpose of this symposium is to provide a forum for review and discussion of the progress and problems of current interest in gaseous dielectrics and their use, especially as insulators in high-voltage equipment and substation. The symposium also will stress the use of SF₆, fluorocarbons and other dielectric gases in plasma processing. For technical and general conference information, please contact the local organizing committee: National Institute of Standards and Technology, 100 Bureau Drive, Stop 8113, Gaithersburg, MD 20899-8113, USA, Fax: (301) 948-5796.
