Interdisciplinary workshop on Theory around XFELs, November 18th to 20th in Marseille

Dear colleagues,

We are pleased to announce that the interdisciplinary workshop Theory around XFEL will take place from November 18th to 20th in Marseille.

It will gather theoreticians and experimentalists with physics, chemistry and biology backgrounds to discuss the state-of-the-art,
future prospects and opportunities of theoretical simulations related to X-ray free electron lasers. Various topics related to XFEL will be covered:

High density of energy, Structural biology, Condensed matter physics, Atoms and molecules in dilute phase, Ultrafast (atto/femto) processes.

The list of invited speakers, as well as all practical information can be found on our website: https://xrayfel.github.io/
Registration is free but mandatory. It includes lunches and coffee breaks during the workshop.
Please fill out this form: https://xrayfel.github.io/register.html.

The number of participants is limited
so please register as soon as possible.

Note that you can send an abstract if you want to be considered for an oral contribution. You will find a template on the registration form, please use this template to submit your abstract in PDF format.
Two types of contributions will be possible: regular talks of 30 minutes (questions included), and flash talks of 5 minutes. Please select which type of contribution you want when filling the registration form.
We also announce that the plenary meeting of the GDR XFEL will take place at the same location from 21th to 22th of November.

More information will soon be available here: https://www.gdr-xfel.cnrs.fr/actualite/plenary-meeting-2024/

Don’t hesitate to contact us at [email protected] if you have any questions.
We hope to see you in Marseille next November!

The workshop “Computer simulations for condensed phase systems: from correlated electrons to novel materials” took place in Rome, at the headquarters of the CNR (Italian National Research Council) , on the 4th and 5th of May 2015. It was meant as a celebration of Giovanni Bachelet’s 60th birthday, organized by several of his former students who are currently active in the field of electronic structure calculations.
