IET Event Production Events

The Particle Accelerator Engineering Network is pleased to announce an upcoming event on the Functional Safety of Linear Accelerators. The event will include presentations on the latest advancements in safety protocols and technologies which ensure the reliable operation of linacs. Attendees will also have the opportunity to tour Elekta, a leading company in precision radiation therapy, where they will see cutting-edge innovations in linac technology and safety measures.

Technological developments have underpinned the increase in accuracy of weather forecasts. In particular, from the mid-1960s the use of increasingly sophisticated numerical models coupled with an enhanced availability of observations have led to modern five-day forecasts being as accurate as one-day forecasts 50 years ago. These developments will be discussed along with how numerical models are used to understand how the climate system works and how it might change in the future.
