SUMMARY:CATCOSY 2026
DESCRIPTION:2nd International Workshop CATCOSY 2026 on July 2nd\, 3rd 2026 in Pisa\, Italy\nFollowing the success and building on the experience of the 1st International Workshop CATCOSY 2024\, we plan to hold a 2nd International Workshop CATCOSY 2026 as a transversal workshop led primarily by WG3 members\, but also of interest for WG1 and WG2 members. As in CATCOSY 2024\, we will primarily address subnanometer-to-nanometer transition metal and metal-oxide (photo-/electro-)catalysts\, and the understanding of their unique structure/relationship properties. We will convene the top expertise within the COSY network on the experimental synthesis and characterization via microscopy and spectroscopy techniques\, and on advanced theoretical modeling of these fascinating systems. The topics will be related to the most critical catalytic processes facing modern society: achieving a neutral carbon cycle\, via small molecule activation in both reduction of inert species (CH4\, CO2\, …) and degradation of noxious compounds in e.g. wastewater treatment\, as well as for hydrogen production. Our goal is to design highly performant\, long-lived\, selective\, affordable\, and sustainable (photo-/electro-)catalytic materials via a detailed atomistic understanding and predictive modeling of their structure and dynamics\, achieved through the investigation of realistic as well as ideal\, prototypical systems. Themes such as cluster/support interactions\, cluster-cluster interactions\, photo-induced activation and reactivity\, various forms of IR\, UV-vis and X-ray spectroscopies\, fluxional behavior also due to Jahn-Teller and pseudo-Jahn-Teller distortions\, non-adiabatic effects\, charge state\, and the experimental monitoring and theoretical description of all these phenomena will be targeted in the Workshop. \nThe program will feature invited and contributed 25-minute lectures\, and 15-minute hot topic presentations by young researchers of the COST Action\, motivating representation of YRIs and ITCs\, and attendance\, poster presentations and flash poster presentations on the selected themes. The workshop will include a round table discussion\, likely providing a platform for deeper discussions and an exchange of ideas among participants. \n  \nConfirmed invited speakers:\nSylvie Bégin-Colin\, Strasbourg\, France \nGiuseppe Brancato\, Pisa\, Italy \nChiara Cappelli\, Pisa\, Italy \nMaría Pilar de Lara-Castells\, Madrid\, Spain \nWolfgang Ernst\, Graz\, Austria \nClaudio Evangelisti\, Pisa\, Italy \nRiccardo Ferrando\, Genova\, Italy \nAlessandro Fortunelli\, Pisa\, Italy \nJuan Carlos Hernández Garrido\, Cadiz\, Spain \nArturo Manuel Lopez Quintela\, Santiago de Compostela\, Spain \nYoshie Murooka\, Liverpool\, UK \nLaurent Piccolo\, Lyon\, France \nStefan Vajda\, Prague\, Czechia \n  \nThe scientific sessions will start on July 2nd (morning) and end on July 3rd (afternoon). The meeting will be celebrated at the Hotel Repubblica Marinara in Pisa\, Italy (https://www.hotelrepubblicamarinara.it) and is registration-free. \nAnyone interested\, please register within May 10th 2026 at:\nhttps://forms.gle/bS9q8DHoVZoCXnXa8 \nA very limited number of COSY travel grants especially for younger ITC participants is available. \n  \nOrganizers:\nAlessandro Fortunelli\, María Pilar de Lara-Castells\, Stefan Vajda \n  \nLocal Organizing Committee:\nThantip Roongcharoen\, CNR-ICCOM\, Pisa\, Italy \nAlessandro Fortunelli\, CNR-ICCOM\, Pisa\, Italy \nProgram & Information\nDownload Flyer info \nCATCOSY-flyer-info-latest

SUMMARY:COSY General Meeting Satellite WG1/WG5 Meeting
DESCRIPTION:We invite the members of the COST Action CA21101 (“COSY”)\, as well as all interested parties\, to join the working group 1 (WG1) and 5 (WG5) one-day symposium in the CSIC Central Campus\, Madrid on the 30th of April 2026. Working group 1 (leader Piotr Zuchowski) covers fundamental studies of molecular interactions: new methods\, benchmarks on confined systems. Working group 5 (leader Lauri Halonen) covers computational\, theoretical\, and experimental investigation of the formation of molecules and matter in the interstellar medium and in planetary and solar atmospheres. The aim is to continue the close collaboration between these working groups\, i.e.\, theoretical and computational expertise in WG1 and experimental and theoretical spectroscopic knowledge in WG5. On the theory side\, we are interested in molecular scattering\, perturbation theory\, variational and discrete variable methods\, and electronic structure calculations. The applications concentrate particularly on astrochemistry\, i.e.\, on spectroscopy and chemical reactions in the gas phase and on surfaces of particles in the interstellar medium and in the atmospheres of exoplanets\, and near very hot environments. New experimental\, theoretical\, and computational methods are also key aspects of our scientific interest. \nOrganizing Committee \nLauri Halonen (University of Helsinki) \nPiotr Zuchowski (University of Torun) \nAlexandre Zanchet (Spanish National Research Council (CSIC)\, Madrid) \nMaría Pilar de Lara-Castells – Action Chair COSY COST Action  (Spanish National Research Council (CSIC)\, Madrid) \nProgram: \n9:00 – 9:45 Sergey Yurchenko (London)\, Computing molecular line lists for exoplanetary atmospheric applications:  Over the all wavelength  \n9:45 – 10:00 Amélie Godard Palluet (Madrid)\, Collisional studies to investigate the properties of astrophysical media \n10:00 – 10:45 Jose Cernicharo (Madrid)\, The new golden age of astrochemistry \n10:45 – 11:15  Coffee break \n11:15 – 12:00  Henrik Kjaergaard (Copenhagen)\, The effect of temperature on OH-stretching bands of hydrogen bound complexes \n12:00 – 12:30  Valentina Erastova (Edinburgh) Tracing Mars’ biosignatures through molecular modelling \n12:30 – 12:45  Michal Zoltowsky (Torun)\, Collisional studies of heavy molecules observed in comets \n12:45 – 13:00  Anzhela Veselinova Marinova (Rennes) Quantum study of HCOOH-He collisions: Implications for non-local thermal equilibrium modelling of formic acid in the interstellar medium \n13:00 – 14:30  Lunch break \n14:30 – 15:15  Alston Miquitta (London)\, A framework for exact self-consistent embedding: Obtaining the infinite-order induction energy from Symmetry-Adapted Relaxation Theory (SART) \n15:15 – 15:45  Andre Gomez (Lille) Molecular properties for heavy element systems with coupled cluster and embedding theories \n15:45 – 16:00 Dominik Cieslinski (Warsaw) Degenerate symmetry-adapted perturbation theory: Applications to open-shell systems and excimers \n16:00 – 16:30  Coffee break \n16:30 – 17:15  Piotr Zuchowski (Torun) \n17:30 – 18:30 Closure ceremony \nVenue \nCSIC Central Campus\, C. de Serrano\, 121 (Conference Hall)\, 28006 Madrid\, Spain.
