2018 Gentner-Kastler Prize awarded Luc Bergé
The Gentner-Kastler Prize is awarded by the German Physical Society (DPG) and the French Physical Society (SFP) to a physicist whose research has led to top level breakthroughs during his/her whole carrier carried out mainly in France or in Germany.
EPS Executive Committee and Staff activities September 2018
The EPS works to support its members. Find below the list of activities of the EPS Executive Committee and staff in summer:
Report on EPS-QEOD Europhoton Conference 2018
The 8th EPS-QEOD Europhoton Conference was held in the city of Barcelona, on the Mediterranean coast of Spain, from 2-7 September 2018.
This biennial conference, which is focused on photonics, has been held in different locations across Europe since its inaugural conference in Lausanne, Switzerland, in 2004.
NANOMETA 2019
The European Physical Society will organise the 7th International Topical Meeting on Nanophotonics and Metamaterials (NANOMETA 2019) which will be held in Seefeld ski resort, Tirol, Austria during 3 – 6 January 2019. This will be the sixth conference in the NANOMETA series following a meeting in January 2007, 2009, 2011, 2013, 2015 and 2017 attended by many leading authorities in the field.
Statistical Physics of Complex Systems (SPCS2019)
The conference will be held in Nordita, Stockholm, Sweden from 7-11 May 2019. This will be the 2nd conference of the EPS Statistical and Nonlinear Physics Division, connected with the award of the EPS Statistical and Nonlinear Physics Prize. The previous conference, where the prize was awarded for the first time, was in Krakow in 2017.
First EPS Conference on Gravitation
The first EPS (European Physical Society) Conference on Gravitation will be held at the Sapienza University (Rome, Italy) from 19-21 February 2019.
The aim of the conference is to discuss about several aspects of Gravitation, such as measurements of the G constant, Quantum Gravity, Geodesy, General Relativity tests, and obviously Gravitational Waves (from the experimental, theoretical and data analysis point of views).
EOSAM 2018: European Optical Society Biennial Meeting
EOS biennial Meeting will be held in Delft, Netherlands. The meeting will take place at the Delft University of Technology, in October 08 – 12, 2018 where the latest results in optics and photonics research will be presented.
HOPDSS 2018
2018 marks the 50th anniversary of the creation of the European Physical Society (EPS). In this context, and following the success of two previous meetings in Cambridge (United Kingdom) and Pöllau (Austria), the organisers are happy to announce the Third International Conference on the History of Physics, under the auspices of the EPS, which will take place in Donostia/San Sebastian (Spain) in October 17-21, 2018.
15th European Solar Physics Meeting (ESPM-15)
The 15th Conference of the ESPM Series was very successfully organised in the premises of Budapest’s Eötvös-Loránd University in early September 2017. The triennial meeting series brings together the European and a significant part of the international solar physics community for a week of intense interaction and debate that redefines, often reshaping, the field’s state-of-the-art. ESPMs are assigned to a local organizer via a highly competitive bidding process and are coordinated by the European Solar Physics Division (ESPD), a joint Division of the European Physical Society and the European Astronomical Society. The ESPD values highly the geographical distribution of ESPMs, having assigned their venues in twelve (12) different European countries so far.
