Original Welcome:

This event is dedicated to assembling experts on the fields of plasma and particle physics, in particular on laser induced fusion and particle production in intense fields. These research areas are promising for future development, they connect to the use of large scale international facilities, like CERN and ELI.

Main Topics:

  • Perspectives on Laser and Particle Beam Aided Fusion
  • Particle Production in Strong Fields
  • Field Theory and Strongly Interacting Plasmas
  • New Methods and Mathematical Techniques

On May 19-th Johann Rafelski has his birthday, presenting an additional occasion to review the above research topics in which he was making contributions. Jan was a Fulbright Fellow at the Budapest Wigner Research Centre for Physics during Summers in 2019-2021.
