From 28 March to 1 April 2022 the virtual DPG Spring Meeting will take place with the following divisions and working groups:

• Hadronic and Nuclear Physics

  

• Plasma Physics
• Working Group on Accelerator Physics

Dear conference participants,

The course of the Corona pandemic continues to affect the organisation of the DPG Spring Meetings: face-to-face meetings cannot be reliably planned at present and holding them on the basis of the currently valid Corona regulations would not be possible or only possible to a very limited extent. Against this background, a return to the usual conference format in spring 2022 is still not conceivable.

At the same time, the conference and the necessary scientific exchange should not be dispensed with. Therefore, we have decided to hold the conference virtually during the originally planned period.

We are aware that this is no substitute for a "real" DPG Spring Meeting in person. At least, we have experienced in the past year and a half what kind of possibilities digital communication can offer.

We look forward to lively participation and exchange under what are still unusual conditions!

The organisers of the "Mainz" conference
