The 24th ETSF Workshop on Electronic Excitations focused on light-matter interaction and the theoretical description of spectroscopic techniques that nowadays probe electrons, plasmons, excitons, and phonons across different energy and time scales with unprecedented accuracy. A deep physical understanding of the underlying quantum many-body effects is of paramount importance to analyze these experimental observations, extract the wealth of information therein, and ultimately render theoretical simulations predictive.
