EPS Executive Committee and Staff activities February 2019
The EPS works to support its members. Find below the list of activities of the EPS Executive Committee and staff in summer:
PARI2019 on “Communicating the importance of science to society”
The Workshop on Public Awareness of Research Infrastructures PARI2019 on “Communicating the importance of science to society will be held on 8-10 April 2019 at STFC Rutherford Appleton Laboratory, Oxfordshire, UK. Scope of the workshop Science is exciting, enlightening, complex, fundamental, precise, logical, and creative, all at the same time. However, for the public to [...]

EPS and APS: An ongoing tradition of partnership
The American Physical Society (APS) and European Physical Society (APS) have enjoyed a long partnership. While APS has established Reciprocal Agreements with many of the national physics societies in European countries, an APS-EPS Reciprocal Agreement was established through an exchange of letters in the 1984, allowing the individual members of both APS and EPS to register and present papers at each other’s meetings at member rates.
2019 Vladilen Letokhov Medal
The 2019 Vladilen Letokhov Medal is awarded to Prof. Dr. Ferenc Krausz, Director of the Max Planck Institute of Quantum Optics (MPQ) and Chair for Experimental Physics & Laser Physics at the Ludwig-Maximilians-Universität (LMU) Munich. The prize is awarded to Prof. Krausz “for his contribution to the development of high-field laser physics, in particular for pioneering attosecond physics, through which real-time views of electron motion in atoms, molecules, and solids have become possible”.
EPS Plasma Physics Innovation Prize 2019
The EPS Plasma Physics Innovation Prize 2019 for technological, industrial or societal applications of research in plasma physics is awarded jointly to Professor Hana Barankova and Professor Ladislav Bardos, both of the Ångström Laboratory, Uppsala University, Sweden.
