ÌÇÐÄÆƽâ°æ

Taiyô Tenno is a young Japanese student on a world tour of "art masterpieces"; Soléane is "a scientist at heart," presumably French, who speaks perfect Japanese. They meet at Cézanne's workshop in Aix-en-Provence and soon find themselves seated at the terrace of Les Deux Garçons, the town's most elegant café.

Soléane speaks Japanese because her work in "energy research" implies a lot of "professional dealings with Japan." Taiyô Tenno is impressed, especially when Soléane explains that her work is about "duplicating the energy-generating process in the Sun and stars"...

The first manga on ÌÇÐÄÆƽâ°æ—"A small sun on Earth"—has just been published by ÌÇÐÄÆƽâ°æ Japan and is available in Japanese, French and English.

The International Zvenigorod Conference on Plasma Physics and Controlled Fusion is an annual rendezvous near Moscow for fusion research specialists from Russia and abroad. For one week in April, recent achievements in high and low temperature plasma research, the field of controlled fusion, and the development of plasma and beam technologies are presented through lectures, short talks and poster presentations.

Russian participation in the ÌÇÐÄÆƽâ°æ Project was reported at the "ÌÇÐÄÆƽâ°æ Project: Step to future energy" portion of the program under the direction of Anatoly Krasilnikov, director of the Russian Domestic Agency. Representatives of the research centres and the industrial companies involved in the procurement of ÌÇÐÄÆƽâ°æ systems and components were present to report on the challenging technical specifications of the packages under Russian responsibility and the benefits of participation in ÌÇÐÄÆƽâ°æ for the Russian research infrastructure overall.
