There is a community of scientists and engineers devoted to developing the physics and technology of very high magnetic field systems. This community recently convened in Novosibirsk (Akademgorodok), USSR, at the Third International Conference on Megagauss Magnetic Field Generation and Related Topics (Megagauss III), 13–17 June 1983. The direct coupling of the Conference activities to controlled nuclear fusion interests occurred in three areas: liner compression of plasma, imploding liners as high-power sources for ICF, and a visit at the Institute of Nuclear Physics (INP). It is believed, however, that the other topics of the Conference should also be of general interest to many of the readers of "Nuclear Fusion".
