Proceedings

We are very sorry that our email server has overflowed near the proceedings deadline, and emails have bounced (in which case, error messages will have returned). This problem has now been solved.

We ask those of you who have not received our replies to their submission emails sent between July 18 and July 22 to please re-send us your manuscript by no later than 17:00 JST (Japan Standard Time) on Thursday, July 24, 2014 (8:00 on July 24, GMT).

Thank you all very much for your kind understanding and cooperation, and we apologize again for the earlier server error.

We invite all UP2014 presenters to submit a paper for our book of Proceedings, tentatively entitled Ultrafast Phenomena XIX and planned to be published as a volume in the Springer Proceedings in Physics series.

Each conference participant will receive a hard copy of the book, as well as a one-year online access to its electronic version.

Please follow the instructions below to submit your paper:

Submission deadline

Permission form for reproducing figures

If you are using an exact copy of any figure that has appeared in another publication, whether written by you or by someone else, you will need to obtain the copyright holders' signed permission to reproduce the figure in question. For your ease of this procedure, please download and use Springer's permission request form.

You do not need to send the obtained signed permission to us.
