To coincide with the centenary of the discovery of superconductivity by H. Kamerlingh Onnes in 1911 we have attracted a major ESF superconductivity workshop to Bath in May 2011. The 3-day workshop on Mesoscopic Superconductivity and Vortex Imaging has already been awarded Euro30k of core support by the ESF Research Network Programme Nanoscience and Engineering in Superconductivity (NES) . Under ESF rules this funding should be used to cover the local costs of scientists from contributing (or associated) European countries. This proposal seeks a modest EPSRC investment to support seven additional world-leading keynote lecturers from outside Europe, allowing this meeting to be able to set a truly international agenda for future high impact UK research in the area. All the proposed keynote speakers are recognised experts in superconductivity and have been selected to give their unique perspectives on the most important contemporary problems in the field, the results from the latest experiments seeking to address these and the most exciting research directions for the future. We also request funds to partially cover the local costs of 10 additional EPSRC PhD students, allowing us to support at least one student from each of the 13 UK groups participating in the ESF NES Programme. These stand to benefit immeasurably from their exposure to the latest ideas and experiments in the field as well as the opportunity to present their research work to recognised international research leaders. In addition to setting the agenda for future high impact UK research in the field the meeting will serve as a showcase for current world-leading UK work on the physics and applications of superconducting materials, both in academia and the industrial sector. New superconducting materials and devices have very strong potential for contributing towards solutions to several key current national challenges in the areas of energy distribution & carbon emissions, health & medical diagnosis and security. EPSRC support will be fully acknowledged in all workshop and publicity materials.

为了纪念H. Kamerlingh Onnes在1911年，我们吸引了一个主要的ESF超导研讨会在2011年5月巴斯。为期3天的介观超导和涡旋成像研讨会已经获得了ESF研究网络计划纳米科学和超导工程（内斯）的3万欧元核心支持。根据ESF的规定，这笔资金应用于支付来自贡献（或联系）欧洲国家的科学家的当地费用。该提案寻求适度的EPSRC投资，以支持来自欧洲以外的另外七位世界领先的主题演讲者，使本次会议能够为未来英国在该领域的高影响力研究制定真正的国际议程。所有提议的主题演讲者都是公认的超导专家，并被选中对该领域最重要的当代问题提供独特的观点，最新实验的结果旨在解决这些问题以及未来最令人兴奋的研究方向。我们还要求资金部分支付10名EPSRC博士生的当地费用，使我们能够支持参加ESF内斯计划的13个英国团体中的每一个至少一名学生。这些立场受益于他们接触到该领域的最新想法和实验，以及有机会向公认的国际研究领导者展示他们的研究工作。除了为英国未来在该领域的高影响力研究制定议程外，会议还将展示英国目前在学术界和工业界在超导材料物理学和应用方面的世界领先工作。新的超导材料和设备具有非常强大的潜力，可以为解决能源分配和碳排放，健康和医疗诊断以及安全领域的几个关键国家挑战做出贡献。所有工作坊及宣传资料均会充分肯定EPSRC的支持。
