Abstract submission deadline approaching A special focus session entitled “New Trends in Spectroscopy” will be held at the 2010 APS March meeting in Portland, Oregon. The session will highlight recent advances in broadband coherent methods, particularly those using frequency comb sources and chirped microwave and mm-wave methods. All those working in related fields are invited to participate. A description of the session, invited speakers, and links to further information follows: 11.8.5 DCP New Trends in Spectroscopy Powerful new tools are becoming available for what might be called "massively parallel spectroscopy." New applications of fs frequency combs to spectroscopy and problems in chemical physics are appearing rapidly, following their revolutionary applications in metrology. An assortment of high information content schemes are being developed to take advantage of these unique light sources. Similarly revolutionary developments in microwave and mm-wave spectroscopy based on chirped pulse phase-coherent methods are enhancing high resolution spectroscopy and enabling new studies of molecular dynamics with efficient means of collecting dense information sets. We seek to gather practitioners and aspirants to share current work and ideas on these and other new methods in spectroscopy. The invited speakers include: Lester Andrews Ian Coddington Brian Dian David Jones Brooks Pate Nathalie Picqué Jun Ye. THE DEADLINE FOR ABSTRACT SUBMISSION IS NOVEMBER 20, 2009.
