The AttoChem network coordinates experimental and theoretical efforts to exploit the large potential of attosecond techniques in chemistry, with the aim of designing new strategies for the control of charge migration in molecules by directly acting on the attosecond time scale.
Currently the conference is planned as an in-person meeting.

Social program on Sunday afternoon
Science walking tour through Prague (from 14:00)
Prague lies in Central Europe and as such is blessed with many layers of fascinating history. One of those is the history of science. Over the centuries many world-famous scientists lived and worked in Prague and made important discoveries here. For Sunday afternoon we are organizing a walking tour connected with the history of science and places of work of scientists who made important discoveries here including Johannes Kepler, Albert Einstein and many others. Last but not least you will learn how ultrashort electromagnetic pulses were discovered at Charles University a hundred years ago. We will take you through the heart of Prague and other nearby areas of scientific significance which you could easily miss following regular tour guides. The tour will include an exclusive visit to premises which are otherwise not open to the public and will be available only for this very occasion.
Only a limited number of 40 spots are available for the tour (divided into two groups) so please secure your place early, see below. Those who will not make it to the main list will be placed on the waiting list. Refreshments will be provided on the way.
Evening beers
Of course even Einstein had to go for a beer in Prague so after the excursion there will be an opportunity to continue to a heart-warming establishment (otherwise known as a pub) in the vicinity of Masaryk College where you can consume beer at your own expense.
Registration for the social events
Registration closed
Organization of the social events
For the walking tour we will meet shortly before 14:00 in the lobby of Masaryk College. Please be on time. Then we will take a tram to the city centre to start our excursion. Expected arrival back to Masaryk College is before 18:00.
Reservation for the pub Na Kotlářce (see the map here) starts at 19:00.
Venue and accommodation
The meeting will take place at the Masaryk Dormitory Congress Centre.
The venue is located close to the airport and in the vicinity of the city centre, see map.
A limited number of single and double rooms have been blocked for reservation by ATTOChem meeting participants until 2nd half of August.
Accommodation in the Masaryk Dormitory can be booked by writing an email to: rezervace-mkcvut.cz. Please quote AttoChem when making the booking.
