Workshop: Prospects in Strong Field Quantum Electrodynamics

Quantum Electrodynamics in its high intensity regime breaks down. Recent advances in ultrastrong lasers enable us to probe this regime in the near future (~5 years). This workshop aims to gather (international) driving forces addressing this hot topic. From theory, numerical physics to detector physics we wish to map out the first few knots to untangle.

• Where? The workshop will be held in Corte within the Université de Corse in the middle of the georgous Corsican island.
• When? From the 28th October to the 1st of November 2024
• How?
  • Meals Arrival on the 28th, welcome dinner at l'Annexe other meals being served in the campus CROUS restaurant.
  • Transports The island can be reached mainly through Ajaccio and Bastia airports. From there Corte can be attained by using the local train line, and a bit of bus service to link both, or you can be shuttled by one of the organiser.
  • Hotel Invited guests will be housed at Hotel de la paix (breakfast included)
• Computer stuff. Eduroam is available on campus. A printer is available if need be.
• Format. Presentations can occur in the morning, blackboard presentation are highly preferred. Most of the time is devoted to work in small groups.
