Topics & Speakers

The conference scientific program will include invited talks, oral and poster presentations as well as informal discussion round tables. Conference topics: coherent scattering of relativistic charged particles in strong fields; relativistic and nonrelativistic crystal channeling, volume capture and volume reflection of hadron and lepton beams; electromagnetic radiation by relativistic charged particles in periodic structures (coherent bremsstrahlung, channeling radiation, transition radiation, diffraction radiation, parametric x-ray radiation, synchrotron Cherenkov radiation, LPM effect, FEL, Compton/Thomson scattering); channeling of radiations in capillary systems (micro- and nano-channeling, nanotubes, nanoporous); novel techniques for beams handling and acceleration (plasma wake-fields, cross-laser fields, crystal assisted collimation, plasma-ion channels, ion/electron guiding phenomena); advanced x-ray & neutron optics (capillary/polycapillary optics, compound refractive optics, micro- and nanofocusing, waveguides); applications based on channeling phenomena (beams shaping, positron sources, powerful radiation sources, crystal-based nuclear fusion processes, diagnostic tools, novel x-ray table-top instruments, applications in material and biomedical studies).

Channeling 2014 will collect, together with historical and present status lectures by the experts in channeling physics, presentations on new large projects as well as various international collaborations devoted to the studies within the main conference topics. This edition will be extended by a couple of thematic round tables.
