Aims and Scope:
The UPHUK-IX congress aims to provide an academic platform for scientists and researchers from Türkiye and abroad to exchange recent advances in particle accelerators and colliders, their applications and sub-systems, accelerator-based light sources (synchrotron radiation and free-electron lasers), dedicated software solutions and AI applications.
The congress encompasses circular and linear accelerators, high energy colliders, accelerator-based 3rd and 4th generation light sources, addressing their physics, design, optimization and applications. UPHUK-IX further covers accelerator sub-systems, software and AI applications and fosters international collaborations and projects between Türkiye and leading worldwide scientific research centers.
