Laboratory tours and excursions

Various laboratory tours and excursions are offered in Dresden as part of the DPG conference week.

Excursion: Current and Future High-Field THz User Facilities at HZDR

Wednesday, 11 March 2026, 14:00 - 17:30

As part of the Focus Session “Chiral phonons and crystals coupled to magnetic order” and open to all interested potential users, we offer a tour of the high-field THz user facilities at Helmholtz-Zentrum Dresden-Rossendorf (HZDR) and an introduction to the planned Dresden Advanced Light Infrastructure (DALI).

The superconducting accelerator-based THz beam lines TELBE and FELBE currently provide extreme THz and mid-infrared pulse energies at high repetition rates for international users from around the globe. In 2025, DALI was announced as one of the 9 shortlisted priority research infrastructures in Germany. It has been selected as a world-leading THz facility by the Federal Ministry for Research, Technology, and Space (BMFTR) to secure and enhance Germany’s long-term research capabilities for the next decades.

The guided tour includes a bus transfer to the Rossendorf site, lab visits at the current ELBE facilities and an introduction to DALI.

As the number of participants is limited, we kindly request that you register by 6 March 2026 at the latest. The meeting point will be provided after registration.
