The International School of Atomic and Molecular Spectroscopy (ISAMS) was established in 1974 by Prof Baldassare Di Bartolo. Its early aims were to update practitioners of spectroscopy (and related disciplines) on new experimental and theoretical developments in this field and to create an opportunity for researchers from the various spectroscopies to discuss their achievements and criticalities in an interdisciplinary framework. <\/p>\n
Spectroscopy investigations concern the phenomena observed when radiation from a source, separated into its various wavelengths, is made to interact with the constituents of a physical system. Through the examination of particular spectra, known molecular species can be identified: for example, the spectroscopy approach made it possible to detect the presence of chemical elements in distant stars. <\/p>\n
More basic applications of spectroscopy science have resulted in a growing understanding of atomic and molecular structures and phenomena such as luminescence. Although the rotational, vibrational, and electronic states of molecules continue to be investigated, another subject of intense study is the field of energy transfer between the different degrees of freedom of molecules.<\/p>\n
In solids, spectroscopy investigations have been directed at discovering the relationships between absorption and emission properties with the position of constituents and crystal symmetry. Advanced studies in the field of impurity spectra have demonstrated the usefulness of spectral data in providing information on the phonon spectra of solids. Furthermore, on the basis of purely spectroscopic data, it is possible to predict the feasibility and efficiency of solid-state systems as possible laser materials. The technique of flash photolysis has extended the use of spectroscopy to the excited states of gases, liquids, and solids, with the measurement of transitions not permitted by the fundamental state. If used to verify the evolution of a reaction, this technique has made it possible to discover the presence of transient species, often previously unobserved and only present for a short time under particular experimental conditions. Spectroscopy investigation also deals with optical spectroscopy (absorption and emission), infrared and Raman spectroscopy, electron-spin resonance, nuclear magnetic resonance, Mossbauer spectroscopy, etc. <\/p>\n
Knowledge developed by spectroscopies has been and is a key tool for theoretical and experimental advancements in the broader field of Photonics, which is ubiquitous and highly impacting in numerous fields. Nowadays, Matter Physics and Photonics are intertwined research fields with huge potentialities for exploring fundamentals and applications in Science and Technology. <\/p>\n
Paying attention to the evolution of the scientific topics, developments and advancements while staying true to its original mission, the ISAMS advanced institute focuses on the dissemination of the knowledge in Photonics and Matter Physics by providing networking opportunities as well as favoring a multidisciplinary and interdisciplinary context. The meetings organized under the aegis of<\/strong> ISAMS are an ideal platform to exchange ideas on emerging fields of research, explore pathways for innovation and new directions, showcase cutting-edge research and foster collaborations as well as cultural and scientific exchange.<\/p>\n Worldwide scientific community is welcome to join the ISAMS’ meetings in a friendly athmosphere and contribute to the mission of scientific excellence and dissemination as well as to push innovations and scientific dissemination in the global societies.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":" The International School of Atomic and Molecular Spectroscopy (ISAMS) was established in 1974 by Prof Baldassare Di Bartolo.
