GoLP team members Zahra M and Gonçalo V went to Crete Island in Greece to attend the FORTH-Onassis Foundation Lectures in Physics: Applications of Extreme Light, Heraklion, Crete, Greece, held on 2-8 July. The school was focused on extreme light, high harmonic generation, LWFA, strong field QED experiment, laser-plasma based proton & ion sources and their applications in science and society including quantum technologies, probing the microcosm, early cancer detection, and global food security challenges. The conference included a distinctive public lecture entitled “Passion Extreme Light: for the Greatest Benefit of Humankind” by Nobel prize winner Prof. Gerard Mourou (in the first picture below with Zahra and Gonçalo).
