EPP team members were at Encontro Ciência 2019 on July 8-10. In this annual meeting of the Portuguese researchers, held at Centro de Congressos de Lisboa, our team showed recent virtual reality (VR) demos, including results from simulations of plasma turbulence, neutron stars and laser wakefield acceleration. For three days, the meeting attendants could dive in the plasma realm and take a look at some of our research from a different, fully immersive perspective.

Our participation in this meeting was also covered by SIC Notícias and the YouTube channel of Encontro Ciência 2019.

The GoLP VR demos are done in collaboration with the Virtual Beamline team at ELI Beamlines, Czech Republic.
