31st European Conference on Laser Interaction with Matter (ECLIM 2010) September 5, 2010

We are pleased to invite you to participate at the XXXI European Conference on Laser Interaction with Matter to be held in Budapest, Hungary, September 6-10, 2010.

The conference continues a traditional series of meetings that started in Frascati, Italy (1966). Recent conferences were held in Moscow (2002), Rome (2004) Madrid (2006) and Darmstadt (2008). This time we are looking forward to hosting you in Budapest, Hungary, on the bank of the river Danube, in the prestigious Spa Danubius Hotel Gellért. We hope that in the year of the 50th anniversary of the discovery of lasers it will be a good opportunity to assemble and to exchange ideas in the country where the attosecond facility of the ELI laser will be constructed.

The main topics of the conference include:

• High Power Lasers and Ignition Facilities

• Inertial Fusion Energy, Including Fast Ignition

• Hot-Dense Plasma Atomic Processes

• Interactions with Ultrashort Laser Pulses, Attophysics

• Diagnostics

• Equation of State

• Hydrodynamics and Instabilities

• Laser- and Ion Beam Interaction with Matter

• Laboratory Astrophysics
