Forefront AMO Science: Clusters, Ions, Dressed States...

Friday, October 21 (1:30-3:00 p.m.); Saturday October 22 (8:30 a.m-5:00 p.m.)

This year, the AMO workshop will focus on present research work conducted in high resolution photoelectron spectroscopy, non-dipole effects, as well as coincidence studies in molecules, van der Waals Clusters and their Ions. It will also aim at discussing and preparing new future directions in two-photons experiments, e-ion coincidence studies in new targets, including metal clusters, and photoelectron spectroscopy of negative ions. Held in collaboration with Ultrafast X-Ray Science at the ALS workshop.
