The twelfth Liquid Matter Conference will take place at Johannes Gutenberg-University Mainz, Germany, in 2024. This series of meetings is organized by the Liquids Section of the Condensed Matter Division of the European Physical Society.
The aim of the conference is to bring together scientists working on the liquid state of matter. This rapidly growing field includes the physics, chemistry, biology, and chemical engineering of liquid matter as well as various applied research areas in the chemical, pharmaceutical and food industries.
The conference will consist of plenary lectures, topical symposia with keynote lectures and contributed oral presentations, and poster sessions. The plenary lectures will be streamed. All speakers will be on site.
Topics to be discussed:
- Ionic liquids, electrolytes and liquid metals
- Water, mixtures and solutions
- Liquid crystals and anisotropic fluids
- Polymers, polyelectrolytes and biopolymers
- Colloids
- Liquid interfaces, foams and emulsions
- Liquids in confinement, solid-liquid interfaces and wetting
- Supercooled liquids, glasses and gels
- Active matter and driven systems
- Biological fluids and liquid-liquid phase separation
- Liquid matter in energy, environmental and climate science
