“ATLANTIC” means Advanced theoretical network for modeling light matter interactIon.
Acknowledgment
This project has received funding from the European Union’s Horizon 2020 research and innovation programme under the Marie Sklodowska-Curie Actions (2019-2024) under grant agreement No 823897.
Status
The ATLANTIC project has ended in Feb. 2024. The corresponding website has therefore closed as well. A backup of its state before closure is available.
Summary
The ATLANTIC project is aiming at developing a network of advanced theoretical modeling of laser-matter interaction that will foster the development of novel theories by bridging the mathematical descriptions within a consortium of scientific groups who have pioneered these formalisms. These physical models address in details the timescales from the attosecond to the microsecond and the spatial scales from the nanometer to the millimeter, providing accurate but partial predictions of experimental data in a disjoint manner. Connecting the respective formalisms of these communities will enable to address phenomena that remained unexplained so far and to achieve beyond state of art capabilities.
First activity will be directly interfacing the simulation results provided by participants using mathematical parametrizations generated from first-principle concepts to the large spatial scale models, enabling to predict the consequences of laser-triggered quantum effects within an efficient simplified formalism. The secondment periods will be used to develop hybrid theories made possible by training research staffs and novel generations to mutually understand and contribute to the development of each others theoretical descriptions. Interdisciplinarity is at the core of this project as it will be bridging several fields of science: ultrafast phenomena, nonlinear optics, condensed matter physics, quantum chemistry, materials engineering, and laser-materials processing. Within the action, novel formalisms will be developed and emerging applications such as harmonic generation, THz wave generation, laser nanostructuring, materials functionalization, complex materials engineering, compound materials science might be further elucidated (described), and young specialists will be trained.
List of participants
The ATLANTIC project of the European Commission stands for developing an “Advanced theoretical network for modeling light matter interaction”.
Since March 1st 2019, the ATLANTIC project, which aims at developing an international network and regular exchanges between theoreticians of laser materials interaction all around the world, has started. The international consortium is composed of 11 countries including 6 members of the EU (Bulgaria, Ireland, Czech Republic, France, United Kingdoms and Germany) along with 5 non-EU countries (Japan, Russia, Bielorussia, Argentina and Uzbekistan) for a total of 12 participating institutions. The Bulgarian group is coordinator of the project.
Purpose of the project is to exchange researchers (permanents, post-docs and PhD students) between teams that have been pioneering various methods of numerical modeling for the description of interaction of laser light with materials. The project is funded by the European Commission, under the Horizon 2020 Marie Curie Actions, “Research and Innovation Staff Exchange” program, and comprises prestigious theoretical groups such as the groups of:
- Prof. Eric Suraud (CNRS Toulouse),
- Prof. J. Kohanoff (Queen’s University of Belfast),
- Prof. Tchavdar Todorov (Queen’s University of Belfast),
- Prof. Kazuhiro Yabana (Tsukuba University),
