The International Summer School: "Basic Photothermal and Photoacoustic Techniques: Theory, Instrumentation and Application" is organized within the framework of the Graduate Program in Environmental Sciences, offered by the Graduate School of the UNIVERSITY of NOVA GORICA. in cooperation with ETTORE MAJORANA FOUNDATION and CENTRE FOR SCIENTIFIC CULTURE INTERNATIONAL SCHOOL OF QUANTUM ELECTRONICS and INTERNATIONAL PHOTOACOUSTIC AND PHOTOTHERMAL ASSOCIATION.
The International School will be held in Erice, Italy during the period from 24 September till 1 October 2023.
The International School is intended for students at graduate level, who have research and future professional interests in photothermal instrumental techniques and related issues.
Participants will have the opportunity to intensively interact with an international team of experts in the field of photothermal and photoacoustic science, and to present and discuss their study and research interests. We have invited top scientists and lecturers from universities all over the world, who will offer lectures in the areas of photoacoustic and photothermal techniques and instrumentation, such as: Thermal Lens Spectroscopy, Photothermal Beam Deflection Spectroscopy, Photoacoustic Phenomena, Infrared Radiometry, Non Destructive Evaluation & Testing, Biomedical and Biological PA & PT Application, Photothermal Interferometry, Quartz Enhanced PAS. The International School will be organized as a series of intensive lectures and case study presentations with compulsory attendance to lectures of INTERNATIONAL SCHOOL OF QUANTUM ELECTRONICS, 66th Course, Progress in Photoacoustic & Photothermal Phenomena, Focus on BIOMEDICAL, NANOSCALE, NDE, GAS SENSING and THERMOPYSICAL PHENOMENA and TECHNOLOGIES and presentation of participants’ own papers.
Participants will earn 10 ECTS credits for completion of the International School, after their final evaluation.
