ASEPS 3 agenda is taking shape
The Asia Europe Physics Summit [ASEPS] aims to strengthen the cooperation in physics research between Asian and European countries. ASEPS meetings present important issues relating to fundamental and applied physics research, as well as research in other fields where physics plays an important role, and discuss them from the view point of Asia-Europe collaboration.
The third ASEPS meeting, ASEPS 3, will take place from 16-19 July 2012 in Chiba, Japan as part of the Asia Pacific Physics Conference [APPC]. It will bring together researchers and policy makers from Asia, Europe and the US. Plenary sessions will present latest research in fields such as high energy physics, quantum optics and climate.
Four round tables will be organised, allowing for intense exchange of ideas on topics of particular interest for Asia-Europe cooperation:i) International Strategic Planning for Large Research Facilities – Science and Technology Issues; ii) International Strategic Planning for Large Research Facilities – Policy and Cooperation; iii) Education and Outreach – Lessons and Challenges in Large Research Facilities; iv) The International Year of Light and International Collaborative Activities.
Organised by the Association of Asian Pacific Physical Societies [AAPPS] and the European Physical Society [EPS], ASEPS 3 will continue to reinforce cooperation in physics research between Asia and Europe as in the two previous editions: ASEPS 1, Tsukuba, Japan (2010) and ASEPS 2, Wroclaw, Poland (2011).
More information on the ASEPS meetings, and their motivation is available on the ASEPS website.
