The Europlanet Science
Congress (EPSC) 2022 - in person!
Granada (Spain), September 18-23, 2022
We are inviting you to attend and submit an abstract to our
session: Tools for characterizing planetary and small bodies surfaces,
atmospheres, and dust particles (Imagery, photometry, spectroscopy, spectrophotopolarimetry)
Conveners: Oleksandra Ivanova,
Frederic Schmidt
Co-conveners: Stefano Bagnulo,
Ludmilla Kolokolova, Johannes Markkanen, Olga Munoz, Olivier Poch, A.Chantal Levasseur-Regourd, Stephane Erard,
Antti Penttila, Maria Gritsevich
Electromagnetic scattering phenomena play a key role in
determining the properties of Solar System objects based on observations using
different techniques and in a variety of wavelengths ranging from the
ultraviolet to the radio. This session will promote a general advancement in
the exploitation of observational and experimental techniques to characterize
complex particulate media. We particularly welcome discussions of future
perspectives in the utilization of observational and experimental techniques to
characterize small bodies surfaces in the context of new missions like Comet
Interceptor, and also the planetary aerosols
and dust in the solar system.
Abstracts are solicited on progress in observational, numerical,
and laboratory methods to extract relevant information from imagery,
photometry, polarimetry and spectroscopy in solid phase, reference laboratory
databases, photometric and polarimetric modeling, software and
web service applications.
Abstract submission deadline is 18 May 2022, 13:00 CEST.

13th International conference on Laser-light and Interactions
with Particles (LIP2022)
This is the FINAL announcement of the 13th international
conference on Laser-light and Interactions with
Particles (LIP2022) to be held in Warsaw, Poland, on August
21-26th, 2022.
Our plans of having a hybrid edition in Warsaw still hold! Both
in-person and remote participations (via video conferencing) are welcomed.
Early registration is still open!
In view of pervading global difficulties, the Abstract submission
is further extended to May 15th, 2022.
The call is open for abstracts on 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 beam description (contributions of 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 (nanocrystallites,
colloids, suspensions, aggregation...),
- biomedical optical engineering (cell manipulation and
properties, microrheology...),
- remote sensing and free space communication (holography, lidar,
turbulence...).
