Call for Papers

The 2026 edition of the RADiation Effects on Components and Systems (RADECS) Conference will be held on 28 October – 2 October in Prague, Czech Republic.

It is organized by the Institute of Experimental and Applied Physics (Czech Technical University in Prague) on behalf of the RADECS Association and technically co-sponsored by IEEE-NPSS.

The RADECS 2026 conference is soliciting papers describing significant new findings or developments in the following areas:

• Radiation Effects Modelling
  • SEE Mechanisms and Modelling
  • Simulation of radiation effects in mixed radiation environments
• Single Event Effects in Devices and Integrated Circuits
• Radiation Effects in Photonics, Optoelectronics and Sensors
• Radiation Effects in Devices and Integrated Circuits
  • Total Ionizing Dose (TID)
  • Total Non-Ionizing Dose (TNID)
  • Synergetic Effects
  • Single Event Effects (SEE)
• Radiation Effects in Complex Devices and Systems
• Radiation Hardening Techniques (Device, Board and System Level)
• Radiation Test Facilities & Dosimetry (including novel instrumentation and methods for radiation field characterization and dosimetry in space and at test-facilities)
• Basic Mechanisms of Radiation Effects (including the radiation response of wide bandgap semiconductors)
• Radiation Environments
• Radiation Hardness Assurance

Authors are prompted to state their preference for presentation (oral, poster or data workshop contribution) and session.

The final category of all submissions will be determined by the Technical Committee which is responsible for selecting final papers and assembling the technical agenda.

Papers accepted for oral, and poster presentation at the technical program will be eligible for publication in a special issue of the IEEE Transactions on Nuclear Science. Selection for this issue will be based on a separate submission of a complete paper that will be subject to the standard full peer review.

The Radiation Effects Data Workshop is a forum for papers on radiation effects data on electronic devices and systems. Workshop papers are intended to provide radiation response data to scientists and engineers who use electronic devices in a radiation environment, and for designers of radiation-hardened systems. Papers describing new simulation techniques and results, or radiation test facilities are also welcome.

The procedure for submitting a summary to the Workshop is identical to the procedure for submitting RADECS summaries. Radiation Effects Data Workshop papers will be published in the RADECS 2026 Conference Proceedings but are not candidates for publication in the special issue of the IEEE Transactions on Nuclear Science.
