ISSC-24 is the latest meeting in the series of interdisciplinary surface science conferences covering all experimental and theoretical aspects of surfaces, interfaces and nanoscale physics and chemistry.

Mechanics, Rheology and Tribology,    Solid-state Chemistry, Materials Chemistry

Isaac Newton Institute for Mathematical Sciences (INI)

Organised by IOP Thin Films and Surfaces Group

Surface Science Day 5 is the fifth in a series of one-day workshops focussed on surface science. The workshop aims to cover most aspects of research in surface science. Its main audience is PhD students and Postdocs, as well as early professionals. The day includes a full programme of invited speakers with opportunities for cross-fertilisation between sub-disciplines. In addition, there is a poster session for contributed posters from delegates. Student posters are eligible for entry for a poster prize, which will be awarded on the day.

The study of phonons–a core discipline in the conventional condensed matter physics literature–is currently being viewed in a new light. With a focus on both elucidation and manipulation of phonons across multiple scales, the emerging field of phononics has been vigorously gathering pace in recent years. In 2011, Phononics 2011 was launched as a prime international conference for the field to take place on a biannual basis. Phononics 2023, the sixth in the series, welcomes scientists and engineers from across disciplines and from across the world.

Royal Society of Chemistry (RSC)

The UK PorMat meetings are organised by the Porous Materials Interest Group of the RSC, and act as a focal point for researchers working on all aspects related to porous materials, including synthesis/design, characterisation, applications, and modelling. They cover research on a wide variety of materials, including zeolites and zeotypes, Metal-Organic Frameworks (MOFs), Covalent Organic Frameworks (COFs), porous silicas, porous carbons, porous polymers, porous organic cages, among others.

IOP

The Condensed Matter and Quantum Materials (CMQM) series is home to the UK condensed matter physics community and offers a focused meeting for topical and emerging fields in solid state and materials physics. The conference is supported by a number of Institute of Physics groups and aims at bringing together scientists and PhD students with diverse interests including exotic electronic and magnetic phenomena in solids, new materials, characterisation techniques and devices. The 2023 conference will be hosted by the University of Birmingham. During the event all active researchers within the relevant subject areas will have the chance to present, and which will form a marketplace for students, postdocs, advisors, and collaborators to find each other.

The European High Pressure Research Group (EHPRG)

Institute of Physics (IOP)

The Joint 28th AIRAPT and 60th EHPRG International Conference on High Pressure Science and Technology will be held at the Edinburgh International Conference Centre (EICC) located in Edinburgh, UK.

UK Metamaterials Network, UK Acoustics Network

The one-week summer school, aimed at PhD students, Postdocs & Early Career Academics, will be hosted between the Henry Royce Institute and Manchester Metropolitan University. There will be five focussed days: i) Numerical Modelling (e.g., finite element), ii) Analytical Modelling, iii) Manufacturing, iv) Experimental Methods, and v) Career Progression/Funding. These will include invited summary lectures and specific state of the art talks from internationally recognised academic and industry experts. As exciting topics with local expertise, we will run metamaterials sports engineering linked projects as part of this event.

There are major water-related challenges that require enhanced molecular-level understanding and description of water at interfaces, to relate that understanding to macroscopic phenomena in aqueous systems, and then ultimately utilize or control those phenomena. Interfacial water is crucial for disciplines as diverse as atmospheric science, geochemistry, energy science, water purification/desalination, and biology. This Faraday Discussion aims to combine different approaches, both experimental and theoretical, to further our understanding of the fundamental properties of water at interfaces. Such insights are expected to have important implications for chemistry, biology and potentially medicine; key sustainable technologies such as filtration, desalination, and photocatalytic water splitting; as well as modelling of processes in atmospheric chemistry and physics.
