ASFAP Working Groups Activity Summary: Biophysics, Light Sources, Atomic and Molecular Physics, Condensed Matter and Materials Physics, and Earth Sciences

Various panel sessions were organized to highlight the activities of the African Strategy for Fundamental and Applied Physics (ASFAP) Working Groups during the second African Conference of Fundamental and Applied Physics (ACP2021) that was held in March 7-11, 2022. A joint session was devoted to highlight the activities assigned to the Light Sources, Accelerators, Biophysics, Earth Sciences, Atomic and Molecular Physics, and Condensed Matter and Materials Physics Working Groups. Major outcomes and recommendations are demonstrated and deliberated in this contribution.

Activity Report of the Second African Conference on Fundamental and Applied Physics, ACP2021

The African School of Fundamental Physics and Applications, also known as the African School of Physics (ASP), was initiated in 2010, as a three-week biennial event, to offer additional training in fundamental and applied physics to African students with a minimum of three-year university education. Since its inception, ASP has grown to be much more than a school. ASP has become a series of activities and events with directed ethos towards physics as an engine for development in Africa. One such activity of ASP is the African Conference on Fundamental and Applied Physics (ACP). The first edition of ACP took place during the 2018 edition of ASP at the University of Namibia in Windhoek. In this paper, we report on the second edition of ACP, organized on March 7--11, 2022, as a virtual event.
