1. Plans for the Plasma Science Frontiers Study FESAC Briefing Fred Skiff (U. Iowa) and Jonathan Wurtele (UC Berkeley) March 12, 2015 Original concept: 2 ReNeW panels, the first on cross-cutting physics themes, the second on platforms and capabilities. Planning now for 3 meetings – Open town meeting to solicit input from the community – White papers will be requested – First ReNeW workshop to identify physics frontiers and opportunities – Second ReNeW workshop to focus on platforms and capabilities Schedule: – Town Meeting: Tentatively July 1 & 2 – ReNeW #1: Week of Aug. 17 (2---2.5 days) – ReNeW #2: Week of Oct. 19 (2---2.5 days)

2. ReNeW Workshop Panels Panel 1: Plasma atomic physics and the interface with chemistry and biology Panel 2: Turbulence and transport Panel 3: Interactions of plasmas and waves Panel 4: Statistical mechanics of plasmas Panel 5: Plasma self-organization 2

3. Town meeting organized by research areas Low Temperature Plasmas – 30+10 overview, three 15+5 focused talks [Same for each area] HEDP and WDM Astrophysical and Space Plasmas Exploratory Magnetic Confinement Laser-Plasma Interactions Fundamental Plasma Physics Fundamental Theory and Computation Open Mic [7+3 for each speaker] 3 Tentative Topics:
