DESCRIPTION:Structured light in interaction with matter has been of interes
 t\, particularly as it relates to the production of high intensity gamma b
 eams. In our package\, [ElectronDynamicsModels.jl]([url](https://github.co
 m/SebastianM-C/ElectronDynamicsModels.jl))\, we developed a way to efficie
 ntly compute the radiated field resulting from the scattering of a Laguerr
 e-Gauss laser beam off a thin sheet of electrons. The electrons are repres
 ented as relativistic classical particles whose motion is integrated using
  _DifferentialEquations.jl_. _ModellingToolkit.jl_  was used to formulate 
 the model\, allowing us to take advantage of its compiler to generate effi
 cient _Julia_ code. Moreover\, this also enables an easy scaling to parall
 el ensemble simulations on the CPU and GPU. Besides performance\, this app
 roach is also useful for enabling higher precision computations\, which na
 turally leverage _Julia_'s multiple dispatch. Once the trajectories are kn
 own\, the far electromagnetic field can be computed over a grid of pixels 
 from the Lienardt-Wiechert potentials\, and finally we compute their Fouri
 er transform.

DESCRIPTION:Many modern manufacturing techniques rely heavily on lasers and
  more often than not\, the behavior of heat in these systems plays a key r
 ole in determining whether a finished product is of acceptable quality.  I
 n this talk\, I present how it's possible to construct a bespoke finite-el
 ement method solver for the heat equation\, starting from first principles
  and building on the work of _Ferrite.jl_ and _DifferentialEquations.jl_. 
 The solver is then validated against experimental results and I show how a
 ccess to the inner workings facilitates the extension of the code base to 
 tackle related problems such as computing surface hardness after laser pro
 cessing.
