EPS conference in Munich attracts record submissions
The European Physical Society [EPS] through its Quantum Electronics and Optics Division [QEOD] organizes one of the world’s largest conferences in pure and applied optical physics, which has been held every 2 years in Munich, Germany, since 2001.
The Conference on Lasers and Electro-Optics and the European Quantum Electronics Conference [CLEO Europe-EQEC] is one of EPS’s flagship congress events, attracting the world’s pre-eminent scientists in optics and photonics…
ACAT 2013
The 15h International Workshop on Advanced Computing and Analysis Techniques in Physics Research [ACAT 2013] will be held in Beijing, China, on 16-21 May 2013. The Institute of High Energy Physics [IHEP] will host the workshop.
This workshop is the latest of a series created in 1990. Its main purpose is to bring together researchers working in the field of computing. It has established bridges between physics and computer science research, facilitating the advances in the understanding of the Universe at its smallest and largest scales…
ITER gets off the ground
The 20,500-square-metre ITER Headquarters building was inaugurated on 17 January 2013. The ITER site is located in Cadarache, France, that already hosts France’s nuclear research centre [CEA].
Guenther H. Oettinger, EU Commissioner for Energy, and Geneviève Fioraso, French Minister of Higher Education and Research, together with ITER Director-General Osamu Motojima unveiled the commemorative plaque at the entrance of the building. They also visited the ITER construction site where the Tokamak Complex construction will begin…

Updating the European Strategy for Particle Physics
On 21-26 January 2013 the European Strategy Group met in Erice, Italy to draft an update of the medium and long-term European Strategy for Particle Physics to be submitted shortly for approval by the CERN Council. The Erice “retreat” followed the Open Symposium of Krakow, Poland, in September 2012.
This timely strategy document comes soon after the discovery of the long awaited Higgs-like boson at the LHC and coincides with the LHC shutdown until the end of 2014…
XXXIII Dynamics Days Europe
The 33rd edition of Dynamics Days Europe will be hosted in Madrid, Spain, from 3 to 7 June 2013.

This year the conference will focus on the following topics…
ECAMP11
The 11th European Conference on Atoms, Molecules, and Photons [ECAMP11] will be held in the University of Aarhus, Denmark, from 24-28 June 2013.
The triennial ECAMP conference series, launched in 1981, is the major conference of the Atomic, Molecular and Optical Physics Division [AMOPD] of the European Physical Society [EPS]. This series of conferences seeks to promote the dissemination and exchange of scientific knowledge in the field of atomic, molecular and optical physics…
ASEPS 3
The third ASEPS meeting, ASEPS 3, will take place from 14-19 July 2013 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…
NPA VI – Nuclear physics in astrophysics VI
The sixth edition of the Nuclear Physics in Astrophysics Conference [NPA VI] will be held from 19 to 24 May 2013 in Lisbon, Portugal. The Nuclear Physics in Astrophysics Conference is organised every 2 years by the EPS Nuclear Physics Division.
Discussions will cover many topics related to nucleosynthesis, experimental facilities, s-process, astrophysics in stars and supernovae, neutron stars, isotope detection and solar standard model…
