This poster session provides an opportunity for undergrads to present results from summer and thesis research, as well as to meet other plasma physicists, such as early career, senior researchers, and other students.

Undergraduate or high school students should submit their abstracts as contributed posters following the abstract submission procedure as outlined above. To present in the Tuesday afternoon poster session please select either Sorting Category 10.01 (High-school research) or 10.02 (Undergraduate research).
