→ Welcome message from the Co-Chairs
The 21st symposium was held in Jeju Booyoung Hotel and Resort, Jeju, Korea between September 29th and October 4th. It started out with a tributary presentation given by Prof. Chang Hee Nam to the Honorary Chair of the symposium, Prof. Gerhard Paulus, to whom a medal of honor was presented.
We had nine sessions covering the wide areas of rapidly growing interdisciplinary research fields of ultrafast intense laser science. The presentations made by the discussion leaders and the invited speakers in these sessions as well as the discussions that followed the presentations were all thoroughly enjoyable and stimulating. This year, a session was dedicated to celebrating the awarding of the Nobel Prize in Physics last year to Prof. Pierre Agostini, who was invited to attend the symposium.
A total of 12 posters were presented during the poster sessions. In the Sponsor's Session, presentations were given by Spectra-Physics/MKS Instruments, Amplitude, Ekspla, Korea Electro-Optics Co., Ltd, Light Conversion, and Japan Laser Corporation.
We believe the attendees enjoyed the scientific program in the sunny and peaceful atmosphere of Jeju Island. On behalf of the international organizing committee, we thank again the invited participants, the attendees, and the sponsoring organizations for making the symposium stimulating and successful.
Sincerely yours,
Co-chairs of ISUILS2024 (The 21st ISUILS)
