Dear Colleague! 

Following multiple requests we have exceptionally extended the submission deadline for UP 2024 to the 11th of February at 23:59 CET. Do not miss this opportunity to submit an abstract and join us in Barcelona the 14th -19th July. 

Abstracts can be submitted here: https://www.up2024.org/abstract-submission/

The conference brings together atomic, molecular, and condensed matter physicists, physical chemists, biophysicists, and scientists developing new tools, methodologies and techniques, all working on the science of ultrafast phenomena. The Ultrafast Phenomena conference series began in 1976 and is held every two years. The 23rd in the series and the seventh to be hosted in Europe, the conference is widely recognized as the premier international forum gathering the community of scientists and engineers working in research and technology related to ultrafast phenomena.

We welcome papers in the following topics of Ultrafast Science and Technology: 

APPLICATIONS

Ultrafast technology for near-field and nonlinear microscopy, coherent Raman microscopy, real-time/real-space electron microscopy, medical applications, high speed communication, micromachining, 3D nanofabrication and more.

BIOLOGY

Photosynthesis, vision, heme proteins, photoactive proteins, photoisomerization in chromoproteins, wavepacket dynamics, femtobiology, structural dynamics with X-rays and electrons, medical applications.

CHEMISTRY

Vibrational and conformational dynamics, energy transfer, femtochemistry, proton and electron transfer, solvation dynamics, wave packet dynamics and coherent control of reactions, ultrafast chiral phenomena, ultrafast imaging, structural dynamics with X-rays and electrons.

MATERIALS SCIENCE

Highly correlated systems, coherent phonons in solids, carrier dynamics in nanoparticles, carbon-based materials, two-dimensional materials, structural dynamics with X-rays and electrons.

PHYSICS

Ultrafast nonlinear optical processes, kinetics of non-equilibrium processes, quantum confinement, coherent transients, nonlinear pulse propagation, ultrafast nano-optics, novel ultrafast spectroscopic techniques, high intensity physics, attosecond dynamics, plasmonics, terahertz radiation.

SOURCES AND TECHNIQUES

New sources, new wavelength regimes, frequency conversion techniques, amplifiers, attosecond pulse generation, free electron lasers, pulse shaping, pulse diagnostics, electro-optical sampling and detectors, measurement techniques and frequency combs.
