The Symposium on Plasma Physics took place from 10:30 to noon on Monday July 27 during the AAPT Summer meeting in Ann Arbor. The two plenary talks were "The Electrical Charge and Motion of Objects Inserted into a Plasma" by John Goree (University of Iowa) and "Turbulent Liquid Metal Dynamo Experiments" by Cary Forest (University of Wisconsin).

This session continues the tradition of having a session at AAPT national meetings jointly sponsored by an APS Division and the Forum on Education. Previous sessions in the series were DPB (Sacramento, 2004), DAMOP (Salt Lake City, 2005), DNP (Syracuse, 2006), and DPF (Baltimore, Winter 2008).
