The 2nd Conference on Extremely High Intensity Laser Physics will beheld at Instituto Superior Tecnico from the 5th to the 8th of September. This conference is the follow-up to the inaugural conference held in Heidelberg at the Max Planck Institute for Nuclear Physics and aims to explore the physics associated with extreme electromagnetic intensities that will be soon available in several experimental facilities worldwide, by bringing experts in ultra intense lasers, quantum electrodynamics and plasmas.
The conference includes four tutorial presentations open to all the IST community. These tutorial talks will present, in a broad perspective, some of the central questions associated with the topics of the conference.
