Study of Dynamics by Light-Matter Interaction: From Atoms to Complex Systems

The Gordon Research Seminar on Multiphoton Processes is a unique forum for graduate students, post-docs, and other scientists with comparable levels of experience and education to present and exchange new data and cutting edge ideas.

The focus of this first meeting is light-matter interaction 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 rapid technological and intellectual growth in both theory and experiment in the exciting new areas that have recently opened up. The scientific program is cross-disciplinary, including physicists, chemists, and optical engineers.

The program will feature a keynote introductory talk by Prof. Kenneth Schafer and a career discussion panel with Prof. Kenneth Schafer, Prof. Ursula Keller, Prof. Marc Vrakking and Prof. Caterina Vozzi.
