APOLO-2022
We are pleased to announce the
3-rd Advancement of POLarimetric Observations
(APOLO-2022) meeting to be held August 9-12, 2022 in
Washington, DC (Silver Spring, MD).
Abstract submission is open now
and will remain so until April 15th. Registration will begin April 18th and
will continue until July 15th.

Thanks to local organizing
committee, Kirk Knobelspiesse, Zhibo
Zhang, Ahmed El-Habashi, and support of Hal Maring.
There isa good hope to have
meeting in person, in spite of COVID-19 complications,
though the option remains to switch it to online one.
13th international conference on Laser-light and Interactions
with
Particles (LIP2022) to be held in Warsaw, Poland, on August
21-26th, 2022
The call for
abstracts opened on November 1, 2021 for subjects dealing with:
- near-field, far-field and
time-resolved scattering (computations, laboratory experiments...)
- plasmonics, other resonances and
caustics (probing, scattering enhancement,
modelling...)
- complex shaped particles and aggregates (morphology, composition,
functionalization...)
- multiple scattering and random media (dense, turbulent,...)
- mechanical effects of light (particle manipulation, forces
measurement, optical tweezers...)
- laser beams description (contributions acoustical and quantum
beams are also welcomed).
- particle characterization methods (interferometric, polarimetric,
spectral, static, dynamic...),
The following application
areas will be also welcomed:
- two- and multiphase flow characterization (combustion, spray,
bubbly flows...),
- aerosol and atmospheric sciences (nucleation, transport,
characterization...),
- plasma and soft matter physics (nanocristallites, colloids,
suspensions, aggregation...),
- biomedical optical engineering (cell manipulation and properties,
microrheology...),
- remote sensing and free space communication (holography, lidar,
turbulence...).

DATE:

OBJECTIVES:
This series of Cosmic Dust meetings aims at finding a consensus
among experts on the formation and evolution of cosmic dust: where it comes from and where it goes.
The meeting is organized by dust freaks who are very enthusiastic not only to
make the goal achievable but also to establish a dust community across every
scientifically relevant discipline for the development of cosmic dust research. For this reason, the primary
objective of the meeting is to bring together professionals who deal with cosmic dust as well as provide an opportunity for
participants to develop interpersonal relationships and scientific interactions
among themselves.
SCOPE:
All kinds of cosmic dust such as
intergalactic dust
circumnuclear dust
interstellar dust
protoplanetary disk dust
debris disk dust
cometary dust
interplanetary dust
circumplanetary dust
stellar nebular condensates
presolar grains
micrometeorites
meteoroids
meteors
regolith particles
planetary aerosols
are the subject of discussion. The meeting is open
for any aspects of dust research by means of different methods of studies
(in-situ and laboratory measurements, astronomical observations, laboratory and
numerical simulations, theoretical modeling, data analyses, etc.). Also welcome
are papers on dust-related topics, for example:
the formation of molecules and their reactions
on and their desorption from the surface of a solid substance
light scattering by non-spherical particles and
particulate surfaces
space missions and instrumentation for
measurements of particulates
NOTES ON THE PLACE AND THE DATE
This time the meeting will be held on the island
of Kyushu for the first time, the third largest island of Japans'
five main islands famous for world's most active volcanoes (https://www.jma.go.jp/en/volc
ADMISSIONS APPLICATION:
Please complete online meeting application at the
CPS website in order to attend the meeting. The deadline for the application is
May 8, 2020, 11:59 p.m. Japan Standard Time (UTC+09:00). Because the number of
participants is limited to a maximum of 50, the online application does not
guarantee admission to the meeting. Participants will be determined at the
discretion of the SOC and all applicants will be notified of the admissions
decision by May 31, 2020. Priority will be given to those who contribute oral
or poster sessions and retain enthusiasm for discussions throughout the
meeting. For further details, please visit the Cosmic Dust website.

REGISTRATION FEE:
The early bird rate of 10,000 JPY (ca. $100) is
available for those who complete both admissions application and abstract
submission by April 24, 2020. The registration fee for those who complete
admissions application on and after April 25, 2020 is
15,000 JPY (ca. $150). While no payment is required at the time of admissions
application and abstract submission, the registration fee should be paid once
admittance is guaranteed. No matter what circumstances are specified, the
registration fee will not be waived. The payment of the registration fee
permits free admission to all scientific sessions, daily coffee breaks, a
banquet, and an excursion.
BEST POSTER AWARD:
The best poster award will be given to the most
excellent content and presentation of a poster at the Cosmic Dust meeting, although higher priorities are
given to posters by students and junior scientists. The award winner will be announced in the closing minutes of the meeting.
