Conference Description
The Multiphoton Processes GRC is a premier, international scientific conference focused on advancing the frontiers of science through the presentation of cutting-edge and unpublished research, prioritizing time for discussion after each talk and fostering informal interactions among scientists of all career stages. The conference program includes a diverse range of speakers and discussion leaders from institutions and organizations worldwide, concentrating on the latest developments in the field. The conference is five days long and held in a remote location to increase the sense of camaraderie and create scientific communities, with lasting collaborations and friendships. In addition to premier talks, the conference has designated time for poster sessions from individuals of all career stages, and afternoon free time and communal meals allow for informal networking opportunities with leaders in the field.
This GRC will present forefront research featuring quantum light-matter interactions in a variety of systems, ranging from atoms and molecules to clusters and solids. Photoinduced dynamics in these systems are central to many emerging fields of modern atomic, molecular, chemical and optical physics. The meeting embraces the ongoing and rapid technological and intellectual growth in both theory and experiment. The sessions will focus on: attosecond dynamics, multidimensional imaging of chemical dynamics, solid-state dynamics (incl. THz-driven nonlinear dynamics), chirality, nonlinear XUV and X-ray science, dynamics at conical intersections, photoionization spectroscopy, quantum optics and entanglement, and electronic and nuclear dynamics in complex systems (clusters, nanoparticles). The conference will also focus on technological developments and new emerging techniques related to the study of these dynamics.The scientific program is cross-disciplinary, spanning physics, chemistry, and optical sciences, in both theory and experiment. The speakers and discussion leaders are a mixture of well-established leaders in the field and young and upcoming researchers from around the world.
The topics, speakers, and discussion leaders for the conference sessions are displayed below. The conference chair is currently developing their detailed program, which will include the complete meeting schedule, as well as the talk titles for all speakers. The detailed program will be available by February 10, 2024. Please check back for updates.
