[Cuga] PHOTON2019 International Conference, 3-7 June 2019- a message from Pasquale Di Nezza

[Lorelei Carlson]

This is the first circular to announce the International Conference 
PHOTON 2019, at
its 13th edition, that will be held at the INFN Laboratori Nazionali di 
Frascati (Rome,
Italy) in June 3 - 7, 2019.

This conference is part of the series initiated in 1973 in Paris, as an 
International
Colloquium on Photon-Photon Collisions at Electron-Positron Storage 
Rings. The
latest Photon conferences took place in CERN-Geneva (2017), Novosibirsk 
(2015),
Paris (2013), Spa (2011), Hamburg (2009), Paris (2007), Warsaw (2005), 
Frascati
(2003), Ascona (2001), Freiburg (2000), Ambleside (1999), and Egmond aan Zee
(1997).

The scientific program will include topics related to photon-photon and 
photonhadron
collisions as well as final-state photon production at present and future
colliders. In addition, high-energy astrophysics gamma-rays, and 
photon-related new
physics searches (axions, dark/hidden photons, ...) will also be 
discussed. The
conference format will be plenary sessions only.

As Organizers, we took over the challenge of hosting the 2019 Edition of the
Colloquium in the first established laboratory of the Italian National 
Institute of
Nuclear Physics, the Frascati National laboratories. In 1959, exactly 60 
years ago, the
first Italian Electro-Syncroton started here its operations and the year 
after, the first
matter-antimatter collider (AdA) ever built saw the light and for this 
the Frascati
National laboratories were awarded as EPS historical site.

The conference location is easily reachable, being Frascati located 
about 20 km southeast
of Rome and about 40 km east of the Intercontinental Roma Fiumicino Airport.
The PHOTON2019 webpage can be accessed at:
http://agenda.infn.it/event/photon2019

You can already consult the web site for hotel and travel information.
The LOC offers a number of young researcher grants to attend the conference.
Interested participants are invited to send an e-mail to 
photon19_loc at lists.lnf.infn.it
with their motivated request for support.

Please feel free to forward this announcement to your Collaboration and 
to any
interested Colleague. For any information, please contact anybody of the 
LOC or the
secretary: photon19_loc at lists.lnf.infn.it

Looking forward to meeting you in Frascati.
The Local Organizing Committee:
Gennaro Corcella
M.Cristina D’Amato (Secretary)
