Abstract

The PHOTON 2017 conference ("International Conference on the Structure and the Interactions of the Photon", including the 22th "International Workshop on Photon-Photon Collisions", and the "International Workshop on High Energy Photon Colliders") was held at CERN (Geneva) from 22th to 26th May, 2017. The conference is part of a series that was initiated in 1973 in Paris as "International Colloquium on Photon-Photon Collisions at Electron-Positron Storage Rings". The latest Photon conferences took place in Novosibirsk (2015), Paris (2013), Spa (2011), Hamburg (2009), Paris (2007), Warsaw (2005), Frascati (2003), Ascona (2001), Freiburg (2000), Ambleside (1999), and Egmond aan Zee (1997). The topics of the conference included (i) photon-photon processes in e+e-, proton-proton (pp) and nucleus-nucleus (AA) collisions at current and future colliders, (ii) photon-hadron interactions in e±p, pp, and AA collisions, (iii) final-state photon production (including Standard Model studies and searches beyond it) in pp and AA collisions, and (iv) high-energy gamma-rays astrophysics.
