The 2nd International Conference on Ultra-Intense Laser Interaction Science (AIP Conference Proceedings / Astronomy and Astrophysics)

ULIS 2009 was mainly devoted to provide a common forum for three communities of scientists, all of them studying theoretically and experimentally processes induced by the interaction of laser light at extreme intensity and matter, but finalized to three distinct objectives, namely: generation of high energy particle and radiation, thermonuclear fusion for energy production and basic knowledge of atoms and molecules.
