Molecular Laboratory Astrophysics: New Perspectives and Challenges

Workshop
October 31, 2027 - November 5, 2027
This workshop focuses on laboratory astrophysics methods to study the origin and evolution of complex matter observed in space, from dense molecular clouds to the formation of new stars, planetary bodies, and comets. The aim is to present the most advanced complementary experimental and theoretical methods for studying, analysing or simulating complex matter under relevant conditions, in light of a wealth of new information from observations and extraterrestrial sample returns.
