Quantum Light-Matter Interactions: Imaging and Spectroscopy of Ultrafast Dynamics

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.
