The Power Beam Society of India was founded in the year 2003 to promote, to advance the awareness and to spread the highly specialised areas of Electron, Laser and Plasma Beam Technologies across the country. The principal objective of the Society is to bring together scientists and technologists working on equipment development and applications of power beams.
Among the various activities, the Society has organized symposia and schools in the PBAMP series (Power Beams and Material Processing), SEBTA series (Symposium on Electron Beam Technology and Applications), PPT Series (Schools on Pulsed Power Technology) at BARC, VJTI and other research centres.
In the early 70’s efforts were initiated toward developing plasmas as a tool for various material processing applications...
