The organising committee welcome you to Lund, Sweden, for the International Technical Safety Forum 2019 (ITSF 2019) and invites you to send in abstracts for the workshop, see topics in the meny or in the attached file.
The International Technical Safety Forum (ITSF) is a forum to exchange state of the art ideas, processes, procedures and technologies in personnel, environmental, and equipment safety from a variety of high-energy physics, spallation sources and synchrotron radiation laboratories throughout the world. This will be the 14th workshop int the ITSF history.
The topics of the workshop are: Incidents and lessons learned, Equipment certification, Risk assessment, Continuous improvement in HSE matters, New Projects and Challenges, Environmental Protection and sustainability, Communications, Incident/Accident Management, Technical risks, Safety culture and behavior, Fire Safety, Safety Training, Safety for complex shared research centres. More information of the topics can be found in the topic list document in the bottom of the page.
In 2019, the ITSF will be hosted by European Spallation Source ERIC (ESS) in Lund, Sweden. Lund is easily reachable by train (40 minutes) from the Copenhagen International Airport Kastrup (CPH).
The ITSF will begin Monday May 13th with a dedicated day for Fire Safety. That day, the workshop will be at the ESS site. The ordinary plenary sessions start on Tuesday the 14th of May. The workshop will be closed by Friday noon. During the week, tours of the ESS facility and the adjacent synchrotron MAX IV will be arranged. The conference program includes tutorials on selected topics, invited and selected talks, as well as poster sessions.
The workshop venue will be the Scandic Star Hotel, Lund.
ESS, which is currently under construction from, will when finished be the world’s brightest neutron source, powered by the world’s most powerful accelerator, a super-conductive linac. ESS is a European Research Infrastructure Consortium funded by 13 member countries across Europe, with Sweden and Denmark as host countries.
