Conference Announcement:
Gordon Research Conference on Multiphoton Processes,
Tilton School, NH, USA, June 18-22, 2000
*******************************************************
Chair: John Hepburn [log in to unmask]
Vice-Chair: Lou DiMauro [log in to unmask]
*******************************************************
The 10th in a series of even-year conferences which will be held this
summer on the campus of Tilton School, the 2000 Multiphoton Processes
Gordon Conference will join researchers working on fundamental aspects of
multiphoton processes in atomic and small molecular systems with those
interested in applications to systems of chemical and physical interest.
The Conference will begin with a Sunday evening Poster Preview followed by
the world-class wine and cheese reception. Since scientific sessions are
scheduled for the mornings and evenings only, afternoons are free for
discussions and/or recreational activities.
For the 2000 conference, we have decided to have discussions in a number of
areas that are of great interest to both the laser physics and the laser
chemistry communities. The subject areas to be discussed in detail will be:
· Alignment and orientation in molecular photodissociation
· Coherent short wavelength radiation: free electron lasers and high harmonics
· Non-linear atomic optics
· Wavepackets and adaptive control
· Collective effects in multiphoton excitation
· Spectroscopy and dynamics of large molecules and clusters
· Multiphoton spectroscopy
· Photoionization dynamics
· Strong field effects
For more details about this year's program, you should refer to the
conference website:

The poster session, which serves as a central focus of the conference, is
now being organized. All posters will be up all week in a large venue with
refreshments and a discussion area.
This year, we have left some space in the program for a small number of
shorter presentations by younger scientists, to allow the most recent
developments in this field to be discussed. The presentations wil be chosen
from the submitted posters, with the choices being made about one month
before the conference.
