  1. M. Abdou FNST Meeting August 18-20, 2009 at UCLA This is the regular meeting for the FNST community with the important feature of enhanced participation of teams and scientists/engineers interested in FNSF. We had a similar meeting last year August 12-14, 2008 in which important discussions took place and key conclusions with major consequences were reached. This week’s meeting promises to be equally important. OBJECTIVES of the August 18-20, 2009 Meeting: • Review progress and directions for FNST R&D • Review progress and issues related to ITER TBM • Continue discussions of FNST Issues and the role/mission for an FNSF/CTF • Discuss strategy for testing FNST components and materials • Review the status of planning, options, conceptual designs for and FNSF/CTF Notes to Presenters: The Agenda is full. Please note that the time allotted for each presentation includes 3-5 minutes for Q&A. We have allocated periods of time for discussions of specific topics.
