You are invited to participate in the XXXIst International Conference on Photonic,Electronic and Atomic Collisions to be held in the attractive region of Normandy,France, on July 23-30, 2019.

Thanks to an exciting scientific program at the forefront of research on photonic,atomic, molecular and electronic collisions, including ultracold matter, attosecondscience, and relativistic plasmas, we expect to bring together over 700 scientists fromall over the world at ICPEAC 2019.

15 French institutes, belonging to CNRS and various universities or institutions andlocated all over the country, are involved in the organization of ICPEAC 2019, of itstutorials, and some of its satellite meetings.

The main conference will take place at the Centre International de Deauville, in thewaterfront area of Deauville downtown.

The tutorials will be held in the nearby city of Caen with 1000 years of history.

We look forward to welcoming you there!

Scope & Overview

ICPEAC is...... a conference held every two years on four continents, which gathers 500 to 800participants at each edition.The conference brings together world's leading scientists who are actively working inthe field of collisions involving photons, electrons, ions, atoms, molecules, clusters,surfaces, and exotic particles. The latest advances of the domain will be presented,such as ultrafast dynamics at the femto- or attosecond scale, ion-induced radiationdamage in particular of biomolecules, atomic spectroscopy and molecular physicsof antimatter, free electron lasers, particle acceleration generated by high-powerlasers, or ultracold collisions.

The Program will…… start with three Tutorial Lectures that will be held on the downtown Campus ofthe University of Caen Normandy.In Deauville, the ICPEAC scientific program will consist of 5 Plenary Lectures, 63Progress Reports and 26 Special Reports. Plenary Talks are of general interest to allparticipants. Progress Reports and Special Reports will be arranged in two parallelsessions, and are intended to present recent work in different subfields. In particular,the Special Reports are selected from the submitted abstracts to highlight the mostrecent developments. Additionally, about 1000 Posters will be presented in fivePoster Sessions, held either during morning or afternoon sessions. The conferencelanguage is English.

Some information about ICPEAC origins, past and future meetings, InternationalOfficers and Committees can be found on the ICPEAC Central Website.

Conference venue

Weather in Normandy

The average daytime high temperature in July is 20°C (68°F). The averagenighttime low temperature is 15°C (59°F).

Tutorials will be hosted by the University ofCaen Normandy on 23 July 2019

The University of Caen Normandy(UNICAEN) is member of NormandieUniversité, a research and higher educationcluster, gathering the universities of Caen,Rouen, Le Havre and the engineering schoolsof Caen (ENSICAEN) and Rouen (INSA).

The downtown campus of the University of Caen Normandy is particularly suitedto host the Tutorials of ICPEAC, which will be opened and free of charge for Masterand PhD students as well as Postdocs (PhD + 4 years) coming from all over theworld. Note that these Tutorials will be accessible to any attendee who is interested.

Caen is one of the most important cities of Normandy. The home town ofWilliam the Conqueror, hero of the Battle of Hastings in 1066, Caen was vital for D-Day and the Normandy Landings in World War II.The city has wonderful and various religious and architectural heritage, as well as amuch appreciated gastronomy offer.

ICPEAC 2019 will be held at theDeauville International Center from 23(evening) to 30 July 2019

The Deauville International Center (CID)hosts about 160 events every year, themost renowned one being the AmericanFilm Festival. The CID offers first–classfacilities to organize a large internationalconference like ICPEAC: a bigauditorium, numerous conferencerooms, and exhibition halls.

The CID is ideally located on the seafront, in a scenic environment suitable forinformal discussions among the attendees.

Deauville is a delightful resort, regarded as the “Queen of the Norman beaches”,linking the sea and the countryside. Experiencing Deauville means walking alongthe Boardwalk with the sea for a garden, discovering Deauville architecturecombining the extravagance of the Second Empire with the golden age of theAnglo-Norman style, setting sail on the Estuary inspiring the painter Dufy,witnessing the unforgettable spectacle of a horse race, and also tasting the excellentlocal specialties.

Travel & Transportation

Travel to Caen and/or Deauville

Transportation in the City

Deauville and Caen are easy to reach from Paris

Deauville and Caen are distant from each other by 50 km (45 mins) by car.For tutorial participants, bus transportation will be organized to join ICPEAC 2019 in Deauville.

By car: at approximately 250 km (150 miles) west of Paris, with an average time lessthan 2:30 h from Paris Charles de Gaulle or Orly airports via the A13 Highway (toll of 11.70 €)

By train: around two hours from Paris St-Lazare with direct Intercités trains toDeauville-Trouville or Caen stations.

How to reach Gare Saint-Lazare from Paris airports by public transportation? From Charles De Gaulle Airport to St-Lazare train station (around 50 min): Take the

RER B (south bound) and step out at "Gare du Nord". Change to the RER E which willtake you to Saint-Lazare station in just one stop (and at no extra cost - the transfer isincluded in your ticket from the airport). The fare will be about 9€.

From Orly Airport to St-Lazare train station (around one hour): Take the Orlyval shuttleto the "Antony" RER B station. From there take any train in the direction of "Mitry-Claye"or "Aéroport-CDG" and exit at "Châtelet-les-Halles" station. Transfer to the Métro Line 14to go to Gare St Lazare. The fare will be around 10€.

Taxis are also available for a fare of around 60 €.For more details you can evaluate your connection here.

There are also two airports nearby:Deauville- Normandie (9 km from the Deauville center).

Caen-Carpiquet (60 km from the Deauville center).

The Channel can also be crossed by boat :

Ferries sail daily from Portsmouth (Great Britain) to Caen.

Deauville has no public transport network. However, considering its size, you caneasily walk around the town without tiring yourself. You can also rent a bike sinceDeauville is a small and flat land, perfect for cycling. If you want to visit the entireCalvados, the Bus Verts can take you to more than 100 Norman Towns.

Car parks in Deauville:The roadside parking areas are divided into 4 zones. As for car parks, you canchoose between the one near the harbor or the market. Prices vary according to theoption you choose and you can check the price list.Parking lots are also available at the CID and nearby for a daily rate of around 22 €.

By bus: the bus company Ouibus operates during the summer direct lines betweenParis and Deauville, for 18-20 € (single ticket)
