Topics: high energy density physics astrophysics plasma physics fluid dynamics

We are pleased to announce the 14th International Conference on High Energy Density Laboratory Astrophysics (HEDLA), to be held May 20-24, 2024, at the Hotel Duval in Tallahassee, Florida, U.S.A. HEDLA is a topical conference series that started in 1996, and has run more or less every other year since then, alternating locations between the US, Europe, and Asia. The goal is to use or develop laboratory experiments to better understand HED phenomena in the universe.

During the past decade, research teams around the world have developed astrophysics-relevant research utilizing high energy-density (HED) facilities such as intense lasers and pulsed power driven magnetic pinch facilities. Research is underway in many areas, such as compressible hydrodynamic mixing; strong shock phenomena; radiation flow; radiative shocks and jets; complex opacities; equations of state; high pressure solid-state phase boundaries, phase transitions, and unique new states of matter; dust formation, acceleration, and impact dynamics; super-strong magnetic fields and magnetic reconnection; relativistic plasmas, and plasma particle acceleration.

Meeting topics

Laboratory experiments	Radiation hydrodynamics
Cosmic ray generation	Basic plasma physics processes
Stellar, solar, and nuclear astrophysics	Warm dense matter
Stellar explosions, supernovae, GRBs, and supernova remnants	Dust and magnetized HED laboratory astrophysics
Equations of state, phase boundaries, and phase transition kinetics, at high pressures and densities	Properties of planetary and exoplanet interiors, brown dwarf and white dwarf interiors
Hydrodynamic instabilities, mixing, and the transition to turbulence	Computations in high-energy density physics applications
Astrophysical disks, jets, and outflows
