The American Physical Society heads north to Canada for its annual March meeting, held this year in cooperation with the Canadian Association of Physicists (CAP), at the Palais des Congrès de Montréal—the city’s convention center—from Saturday, 20 March, through Friday, 26 March.
More than 5000 physicists are expected to attend the typically chock-full meeting, where researchers will present approximately 5500 papers at more than 90 invited and 550 contributed paper and poster sessions. The APS divisions, groups, and forums represented reflect the broad range of topics that will be explored. The divisions that are taking part in the meeting are those of condensed matter physics, materials physics, polymer physics, chemical physics, biological physics, fluid dynamics, laser science, computational physics, and atomic, molecular, and optical physics. Also participating are the society’s topical groups on instrument and measurement science, magnetism and its applications, shock compression of condensed matter, and statistical and nonlinear...
