European Frequency and Time Seminar (Besancon, 1-5 July 2024)
The EFTS is an intensive full-week seminar intended to provide education and training with lectures and laboratory sessions. It targets a broad audience: Engineers, Ph.D. Students, Post-doctoral Fellows, Young Scientists, Newcomers, etc.
This seminar is original in the following:
- Broad spectrum of topics related to time and frequency
- Broad target audience, yet keeping high level education
- Balance between academic and applied issues
- True laboratory sessions (as opposite to demos). The attendees are expected to practice on a wide range of instruments made available.
We plan 23 lectures, 12 H hands-on labs in small groups, visits at the FEMTO-ST Institute and the Observatory of Besancon, social events, and an Astronomy Session on the “exact time” from stars.
