PHEDM-Hirschegg Workshop 2024
44$^\text{th}$ Workshop on High-Energy-Density Physics with laser and Ion beams
The 44$^\text{th}$ Hirschegg Workshop on high-energy-density physics follows the 40-year-long tradition of scientific exchanges in the cozy environment of the Darmstaedter Haus in Hirschegg, Austria. We are delighted to organize the meeting from January 28$^\text{th}$ to February 2$^\text{nd}$, 2024, as an on-site meeting, and invite the HED community to join the event.
Scope of the meeting
This year, the Program Committee for the 44th International Workshop on High-Energy-Density Physics with Intense Ions and Laser Beams encourages contributions from the HED community on the following topics:
- Theoretical and experimental progress in high energy density sciences (EOS, transport properties, non-equilibrium, phase transitions, chemistry, relativistic laser-matter interaction)
- Astrophysics applications of HED states (planets, stars, accretion processes, astrophysical shocks), nuclear photonics (laser-driven nuclear physics)
- Real-world applications of HED science (particle acceleration and radiation sources, materials synthesis and performance)
- New and upcoming HED facilities
Special session on laser-driven fusion: we plan a full day to have round table discussions and scientific presentations on the current state of laser-driven fusion research worldwide.
In addition, the workshop is structured to provide students and young scientists with an opportunity to present their work in a friendly and collegial atmosphere.
Organisational details
Due to a general increase in costs, this year the costs were unfortunately not covered by the income. As we did not increase the fees for some time, we have decided, after a lengthy discussion, to increase the cost for the rooms and the conference fee as follows:
Conference fee Early Bird €165,00
Conference fee €200,00
Single room €350,00
Double room €300,00
4-bed room €240,00
Please wait for our information on room assignment, before making any payments and travel arrangements.
Registration starts on October 20$^\text{th}$, 2023.
