NUCLEAR AND PLASMA SCIENCES SOCIETY
Institute of Electrical and Electronics Engineers

The IEEE Nuclear and Plasma Sciences Society Standing Technical Committee for Pulsed Power Science and Technology was formed January 1995 to sponsor the Pulsed Power Conferences, and further research and development of pulsed power and related technologies. One of the goals of the committee (whose Constitution and ByLaws can be found here) is to encourage the archiving of pulsed power advances through publication in the IEEE Transactions on Plasma Science.

The biennial Pulsed Power Conference has been the traditional forum for the archival storage of advances in pulsed power research. The IEEE Transactions on Plasma Science now publishes a biennial Special Issue on Pulsed Power Science and Technology. The inaugural issue appeared in April 1997 (Edl Schamiloglu, Kenneth Prestwich, William Baker, and Gerald Cooperstein, Guest Editors), the second issue appeared October 1998 (Robert Reinovsky and Peter Turchi, Guest Editors), the third issue appeared in October 2000 (Hugh Kirbie and Steve Sampayan, Guest Editors), the fourth issue appeared in October 2002 (Hulya Kirkici and Jane Lehr, Guest Editors), and the fifth Special Issue of the IEEE Transactions on Plasma Science on Pulsed Power Science and Technology recently appeared in October 2004 and the Guest Editors were Professor James Dickens, Professor John Mankowski, and Dr. Jane Lehr. The sixth Special Issue appeared in October 2006 and the Guest Editors were Drs. Jane Lehr, Bryan Oliver, and Mark Savage of Sandia National Laboratories. The seventh Special Issue appeared in October 2008 and the Guest Editors were Drs. Bryan Oliver (Sandia National Laboratories), Randy Curry (University of Missouri – Columbia), and Raymond Allen (Naval Research Laboratory).
