ELI Summer School 2025 (Day 5)

The final, fifth day of the ELI Summer School focused on quantum aspects, ultrafast spectroscopy, and novel tools for exploring matter at the nanoscale. Participants had the opportunity to dive into groundbreaking advances in laser science and discover how these technologies open new horizons in studying ultrafast processes.
Topics discussed included:

Quantum Aspects of High Harmonic Generation – Hamed Merdji (École Polytechnique, France)
What Can We Learn from Looking Inside Nanoparticles with Intense XUV Light? – Maria Krikunova (Technische Hochschule Wildau, Germany)
Attosecond and Soft-X-ray Spectroscopy of Liquids – Hans Jakob Wörner (ETH Zürich, Switzerland)
Vibrational Dynamics of Electronically Excited Metal Complexes: Relaxation, Coherence, and Ultrafast Raman Spectroscopy – Antonin Vlček (Queen Mary University of London, UK / Czech Academy of Sciences, Czech Republic)
Spectroscopic Mueller Matrix Ellipsometry for Control of Plasmonic and Dielectric Metasurfaces – Morten Kildemo (Norwegian University of Science and Technology, Norway)
Ultrafast Momentum Microscopy – A Novel Tool for Imaging Charge and Spin Carriers in Solids on Ultrafast Timescales – Benjamin Stadtmueller (University of Augsburg, Germany)

The fifth day concluded the program, leaving participants inspired and with a renewed vision of the future of laser and quantum technologies. The closing of the school served as a powerful finale, highlighting the perspectives of further research in global science.
