Ultrafast Dynamic Imaging of Matter Conference (UFDIM) 2024

18 Nov 2024, 08:45 → 20 Nov 2024, 18:00 Europe/Berlin

FLASH seminar room (DESY Hamburg)

The conference venue is the FLASH seminar room in Bldg 28 c.

 

 

The UFDIM conference at DESY in Hamburg (Germany) focuses on new techniques for imaging the dynamics of matter on ultrafast timescales, from femtoseconds to attoseconds. We have organized sessions on the applications of ultrafast dynamic imaging in biological, chemical and material systems as well as session on electronic dynamics and emerging opportunities. A special emphasis lies on the applications of new sources, including X-ray free-electron lasers, high-harmonic sources, few-cycle laser pulses, and ultrashort electron pulses. This conference is the seventh in a row after previous conferences held in London (2006), Ischia (2009), Banff (2012), Grindelwald (2015), Crete (2018), Potsdam (online only, 2021). The conference will host invited talks and contributed posters.

You are warmly invited to submit a poster.
