Scientific opportunities with APOLLON facilities: from fundamental physics to societal applications
Save the date of the workshop : November 29 and 30, 2023
The community is invited to contribute to this process by participating to the workshop that will take place 29-30 November 2023 in Paris at Sorbonne University (4 Pl. Jussieu, 75005 Paris, Salle de conférence 108 – Tour 44-45 – 1er étage).
As the Apollon Research Infrastructure (RI*, https://apollonlaserfacility.cnrs.fr) is building up its capability as a multi petawatt, multibeams facility, it is time to reflect on the scientific challenges that the Apollon facility is best suited to tackle in the coming years (5-10 years). The community is invited to contribute to this process by participating to the workshop that will take place 29-30 November 2023 in Paris at Sorbonne University.
Four main scientific topics have been identified as encapsulating most of the science envisioned on Apollon: Strong Field QED, Laboratory Astrophysics, High energy particles and photons sources and Warm Dense Matter. Each section will be followed by a roundtable.
The speakers are :
Dave Riley (QUB), Ulf Zastrau (EUXFEL), Ludovic Lecherbourg (CEA), Razvan Stoian (Saint Etienne Un.), Laurent Gremillet (CEA), Archie Bott (Un. Oxford), Luis Silva (IST Lisboa), Roch Smets (LPP, Paris), T. Grismayer (IST Lisboa), H. Vincenti (CEA, Sacaly), Ulrich Schramm (HZDR), V. Malka (Weizman Institute), A. Yogo (Osaka Un.), B. Dromey (QUB), Felicie Albert (LLNL), Jens Von der Linden (Max Planck Insitute), Antonino Di Piazza (LLE), M. Tamburini (Heidelberg Un.), M. Vranic (Istituto Sup Tecn Lisboa), S. Corde (LOA), S. Meuren (LULI).
A poster session will be organized.
The scientific committee is constituted by : Caterina Riconda (LULI), Stefan Weber (ELI), Cedric Thaury (LOA), Anna Grassi (LULI), Martin Lemoine (IAP), Federico Fiuoza (Stanford Un), Julien Fuchs (LULI), Cameron Gueddes (Berkley national Lab), Marco Borghesi (Un Belfast), Francois Guyot (IMPMC), Paul Neumayer (GSI), Fabien Dorchies (CELIA).
The organizers are Alessandra Benuzzi-Mounaix (LULI), Sebastien Le Pape (LULI) and Caterina Riconda (LULI).
This workshop has been totally funded by CNRS. As consequence, there will be no registration fee.
The lunches will be provided.
The registration is closed.
