Previous LIP, OPC & OPS conferences...

The 13th international conference series on Laser-light and Interactions with Particles (LIP) - Optical Particle Characterization follow-up ! is organized at the Institute of Physics of the Polish Academy of Sciences (IPPAS) on August 21-26th, 2022, Warsaw, Poland. Due to possible travel restrictions during this summer, the conference will be an hybrid, mixing traditional in-person and remote participations (via video conferencing).
The conference is focused on interactions between laser beams and particles, from theory to practice (download the flyer), encompassing in particular the following fundamental topics :

- particle characterization methods (interferometric, polarimetric, spectral, static, dynamic...),
- near-field, far-field and time-resolved scattering (computations, laboratory experiments...)
- plasmonics, other resonances and caustics (probing, scattering enhancement, modelling...)
- complex shaped particles and aggregates (morphology, composition, functionalization...)
- multiple scattering and random media (dense, turbulent,...)
- mechanical effects of light (particle manipulation, force measurement, optical tweezer...)
- laser beams description (contributions acoustical and quantum beams are also welcomed).

and application domains:

- two- and multiphase flow characterization ( combustion, spray, bubbly flow...),
- aerosol and atmospheric sciences (nucleation, transport, characterization...),
- plasma and soft matter physics (nanocristallite, Coulomb crystal, colloids, suspensions, aggregation, ,...),
- biomedical optical engineering (cell manipulation and properties, microrheology...),

Keynote lectures

Maciej Wojtkowski

	Prof. Leonardo A. Ambrosio
	Department of Electrical and Computer Engineering, University of São Paulo, Brazil
	“Structured fields constructed from superpositions of nondiffracting beams”
	In this talk a new technique for creating linear, superficial or volumetric nondiffracting beams and pulses is presented. Constructed from discrete or continuous superpositions of arbitrary-order Bessel beams, it allows both the theoritician and the experimentalist to conceive, design and produce arbitrary-shaped, diffractionless and even dispersion-free structured light fields along lines, surfaces and volumes, even in lossy and dispersive media. Although of wide range of applicability in telecommunications, remote sensing, optical alignment, atom guiding and so on, here we focus on applications in optical manipulation of micro-sized particles and on examples which can be of great interest in volumetric or holographic displays. A historical perspective on the calculation of the beam shape coeffcients of such beams is presented in terms of the recent challenge of finding reliable descriptions of Bessel beams in the context of the generalized Lorenz-Mie theory and with the aid of localized approximation schemes.

	Prof. Edouard Berrocal
	Spray-imaging group, Combustion Physics, Lund University, Sweden
	“Exhaled saliva droplets and aerosols measured in time and 3D space: Quantification of SARS-CoV-2 flow rates ”
	Understanding the airborne transmission of pathogens, such as SARS-CoV-2, requires accurate measurements of the exhaled particles. This presentation describes how the size and velocity of the ejected saliva droplets and aerosols can be measured near the mouth. These measurements have been applied when speaking and coughing. The tracking of each detected particle has been achieved in 3D at 15 000 images per seconds. The sizing of the particles has been reached using laser light scattering detected in the semi-forward direction. The evaporation of water content in the particles is analyzed to deduce the transition from saliva droplets to solid aerosols. Using the measured volume of the particles ejected over time, together with a concentration of SARS-CoV-2 in saliva, an estimation of the flow rate emission of virions has been deduced.

	Prof. David G. Grier
	Department of Physics and Center for Soft Matter Research, New-York University, USA
	“Holographic Particle Characterization: Unveiling the Composition and Dynamics of Colloidal Dispersions with Holographic Video Microscopy”
	The in-line hologram of a micrometer-scale colloidal particle encodes extensive information about the particle's three-dimensional position, its size, its shape and its material composition. One snapshot can localize a colloidal sphere to within one or two nanometers over a range of hundreds of micrometers. The same analysis yields the sphere's diameter to within a few nanometers and its complex refractive index to within a few parts per thousand. No other single technique provides such a wealth of particle-resolved information, especially for undiluted and heterogeneous dispersions. Implementations based on the Lorenz-Mie theory of light scattering can analyze dozens of holograms per second on standard computer workstations. This is fast enough to provide feedback for colloidal synthesis reactions and to control industrial processes. Machine-learning implementations are a dozen times faster. We will demonstrate these capabilities in applications ranging from time-resolved analysis of single-particle transformations to real-world applications in biopharmaceutical manufacturing and semiconductor processing.

	Prof. Monika Ritsch-Marte
	Biomedical Optics, Medical University of Innsbruck, Austria
	“Tailored optical and acoustic traps for organoid research”
	Optical imaging of trapped bio-samples poses a serious challenge for large living specimens, such as developing embryos organoids. A customized combination of optical tweezers and standing ultrasound waves represents a flexible solution to this problem, facilitating 3D-manipulation and volumetric imaging

	Prof. Maciej Wojtkowski
	Institute of Physical Chemistry, Polish Academy of Sciences, & International Center for Translational Eye Research (ICTER), Poland
	*In vivo* imaging by Spatio-Temporal Optical Coherence techniques**
	The main physical limitation of the in vivo microscopic imaging is associated with light scattering introduced by irregular and often discontinuous distribution of refractive index. Scattering of light limits the number of ballistic photons delivered to and received from the sample. In our work we try to solve these fundamental physical limitations by developing new optical coherence imaging techniques, which utilize spatio-temporally partially coherent light with access to intensity and phase of detected radiation. In our research activity we focus on developing new optical methods that enable to image biological objects in vivo and in minimally invasive way. We went long way covering significant spectrum of various sizes of objects – from organ-size scale up to internal structure of a single cell.

Publication: special issue of JQRST (SI:LIP2022)

Following the highly successful special issues previously published in the Journal of Quantitative Spectroscopy and Radiative Transfer (JQSRT) [2012, 2014, 2016, 2018, 2020] we will solicit papers for a LIP2022 Special Issue that you will want your state-of-the-art research to become part of yet another benchmark collection of papers on light and shaped beam interactions with particles and particle systems. This Special Issue will consist only of full-size papers documenting research either reported at the conference or pertaining to the main topics of LIP conferences. Each submission will be thoroughly reviewed by at least two independent referees to ensure that all accepted manuscripts satisfy the highest standards of scientific quality adopted for JQSRT. To expedite the communication of your research results to the scientific community, each paper will be officially published (including year, volume, and page numbers) as soon as it has been accepted, typeset, and proof-read. In other words, the authors of accepted manuscripts will see their papers officially published without having to wait for the rest of the manuscripts to get accepted. This accelerated publication protocol is a recent improvement in the JQSRT production process.

Gate is now open until: December 31st, 2022
Code of the special issue: LIP2022/ Select as the Editor-in-Chief: Ping Yang
