SUMMARY:COST/ZCAM school on “New Computational Methods for Attosecond Molecular Processes”
DESCRIPTION:The recent production and characterization of coherent light pulses with durations as short as a few tens of attoseconds (1 as = 10-18 seconds)\, either in the lab from high harmonic generation or in large scale X-ray free electron facilities\, allows one to image and control electronic motion in matter at its natural time scale. Thus\, it is now possible to examine in real time light-induced electron and charge transfer processes producing excitons (electron-hole pairs) that can separate along a given molecule or material\, or ionic fragments following ionization of the system. These mechanisms eventually lead to electronic currents\, which are the underlying mechanisms for fundamental processes that occur in nature such as photooxidation\, electronic transport or radiation damage\, and are at the focus of research in the recently born field of Attosecond Chemistry (see\, e.g\, recent reviews by one of the applicants [1\,2]). The potential of this field is recognized by the European Research Council and COST Action association\, with the Synergy Grant TOMATTO (“The ultimate time scale in organic molecular opto-electronics\, the attosecond”) with € 11\,7 million (GA nº 951224)\, the AttoChem network [3] or the NEXT network [4]\, all chaired by some of the organizers. This new field is being further boosted by the large worldwide investments in new facilities that generate these coherent ultrashort intense pulses\, namely the high-harmonic generation sources (ELI-ALPS\, international laser user facility in Europe) and X-ray free electron lasers (European XFEL\, SwissFEL\, FERMI-Italy\, LCSL-USA\, XFEL-SACLA-Japan). The inherent complexity of most ongoing and forthcoming experiments performed with these light sources inevitably requires theoretical support able to describe the interaction of such ultrashort pulses with atoms\, molecules\, and solids\, as well as the ensuing coupled electron and nuclear dynamics with attosecond resolution. This goes beyond the capabilities of commercially available quantum-chemistry packages\, in particular\, when ionization processes come into play\, as it is the case when XUV and X-ray frequencies or large laser intensities are employed. For this reason\, new theoretical methods and computational tools\, not yet commercially available\, have been developed during the last decade [1\,2]. The goal of the school is to provide a solid theoretical basis and give access to the newly developed computational tools to describe electron and nuclear dynamics following ionization by attosecond pulses\, as well as the high harmonic generation process that leads those pulses. The lectures of the school are structured to introduce these methods in increasing order of complexity: state-of-the-art ab-initio and hybrid time-dependent systems\, as well as more advanced methods that can cope with the electronic continuum of molecules\, with an emphasis on unbound states in strong-fields and on the need to go beyond single-active-electron models to properly account for electron correlation (see recent applications of these novel methods introduced in the school in references [5]-[8]). The school is directed to advanced PhD students and young post-doctoral researchers in atomic and molecular physics\, theoretical chemistry and applied mathematics\, with an interest in developing new software for coherent control of electronic dynamics in systems of chemical interest. \nThis school is co-organised by COST Action CA22148 NEXT\, supported by COST (European Cooperation in Science and Technology). \nCOST (European Cooperation in Science and Technology) is a funding agency for research and innovation networks. Our Actions help connect research initiatives across Europe and enable scientists to grow their ideas by sharing them with their peers. This boosts their research\, career and innovation. https://www.cost.eu/. COST is supported by the European Union. \nRegistration deadline: April 1\, 2026 \nReferences\n[1] M. Nisoli\, P.

SUMMARY:International School on Ultrafast X-ray and Attosecond Science 2026
DESCRIPTION:Applications are now open for The International School on Ultrafast X-ray and Attosecond Science 2026 June 1-5\, 2026 on the Paris-Saclay Campus in France: https://evenium.events/ultrafast2026/home \nThe primary objective of this School is to offer a comprehensive overview of the fundamental concepts and essentials in ultrafast X-ray and attosecond science\, encompassing various applications. The curriculum will address a wide range of subjects\, including strong-field laser–matter interaction and high-order harmonic generation\, nonlinear optics in hollow-core fibers\, attosecond physics in condensed matter and at the nanoscale\, ultrafast science at Free-Electron Lasers and non-adiabatic molecular dynamics simulation methods. Fundamentals in quantum optics will also be covered\, in addition to a special invited lecture by Alain Aspect\, Nobel Prize in Physics 2022. \nThe School will offer a high-profile training opportunity for newcomers in the field\, master and PhD students\, as well as postdocs and early-carreer researchers\, and a chance to discover the laboratories of Paris-Saclay University in the area of the Sciences of Light. Distinguished lecturers will each deliver lectures on a general topic\, scheduled on two different days. In addition\, they will also give a seminar delving into their own research\, thus giving insight into current hot research topics. \nTo foster interaction and collaboration\, the program includes shared meals\, extensive poster sessions\, and informal discussions. A dedicated cultural afternoon in Paris will round out the week. \nConfirmed Speakers \n\nRebecca Boll\, Small Quantum Systems\, European XFEL\, Germany\nChristian Brahms\, Laboratory of Ultrafast Physics and Optics\, Heriot-Watt University\, UK\nLea Maria Ibele\, Institute of Radical Chemistry\, CNRS / Aix-Marseille University\, France\nMichael Krüger\, Department of Physics and Solid State Institute\, Technion\, Israel\nYann Mairesse\, Centre Lasers Intenses et Applications\, CNRS / University of Bordeaux\, France\nMartin Schultze\, Institute of Experimental Physics\, Graz University of Technology\, Austria\nChristopher Westbrook\, Laboratoire Charles Fabry\, Institut d’Optique Graduate School\, France\n\n  \nSpecial Invited Lecture \n\nAlain Aspect\, 2022 Nobel Prize in Physics\nLaboratoire Charles Fabry\, Institut d’Optique Graduate School (Augustin Fresnel Chair)\, France\n\n  \nApplications\nDetailed information on application requirements and deadlines is available on the event website: https://evenium.events/ultrafast2026/home
