The 11th Biennial Conference on Classical and Quantum Relativistic Dynamics of Particles and Fields
4 - 7 June 2018
♦
Mérida, Yucatán, Mexico
The International Association for Relativistic Dynamics (IARD)
hosted
its 11th biennial meeting in Mérida, Yucatán, Mexico 4 - 7 June 2018, in cooperation with
Instituto Politécnico Nacional. The conference sessions
took place
at Hotel El Español in central Mérida.
IARD 2018
marks the association's 20th year of activity since its founding at the 1998 meeting.
Ten previous meetings were held in Houston, Texas,
Bar Ilan University in Tel Aviv, Israel, Howard University in
Washington DC, Saas Fee, Switzerland, the University of Connecticut in Storrs, CT, Aristotle University in Thessaloniki, Greece,
and Hualien, Taiwan, Galileo Galilei Institute for Theoretical Physics (GGI) in Florence, Italy, again at UConn, and in Ljubljana, Slovenia.
The goal of these meetings is to bring together researchers from diverse fields
whose interests involve relativistic dynamics, both classical and quantum.
The conference program aims to present recent developments in the
abstract theoretical aspects of general approaches in quantum field theory,
conformal field theories and string theories, manifestly covariant approaches to
classical mechanics, quantum theory, and statistical mechanics, general
relativity, classical and quantum gravity, and explore application in such
areas as high energy electron spectroscopy, quark-gluon plasma generation in
heavy ion collisions, general high energy scattering and particle decay,
cosmology, gravitational waves, and relativistic quantum information.
IARD would like to express its gratitude to Instituto
Politécnico Nacional for its support in hosting IARD 2018.
