DESCRIPTION:The workshop Axion-Photon Conversion: Terrestrial and Cosmic S
 earches will be held from September 6–20\, 2026 at the Tsung-Dao Lee Cen
 ter for Sciences and Arts (TDLCSA) in Dali\, Yunnan\, China. Organized by 
 the Tsung-Dao Lee Institute (TDLI)\, Shanghai Jiao Tong University\, with 
 strong support from the State Key Laboratory of Dark Matter Physics\, the 
 workshop will bring together researchers from high-intensity laser-plasma 
 physics\, particle physics\, astrophysics\, and cosmology to explore exper
 imental and astrophysical approaches to axion-photon conversion and axion 
 searches.The workshop aims to strengthen connections between experimental 
 axion searches and astrophysical studies of axion-photon conversion. Curre
 nt efforts at TDLI include the development of ultra-intense laser-plasma f
 acilities for axion generation and detection\, as well as laboratory astro
 physics platforms that simulate extreme electromagnetic environments. Thes
 e experimental programs are closely connected to astronomical observations
 \, including fast radio bursts and other time-domain surveys\, offering co
 mplementary approaches to probing axion physics. Through interdisciplinary
  discussions and collaborations\, participants will explore new opportunit
 ies for both laboratory-based and astronomical searches for axions. Found
 ed by distinguished overseas Chinese scholars\, TDLCSA embraces the vision
  of Nobel Laureate Professor Tsung-Dao Lee that science and art are two si
 des of the same coin. The center is dedicated to fostering a world-class A
 spen-style environment for academic exchange\, bringing together scientist
 s and artists from around the world. Located between Cangshan Mountain and
  Erhai Lake\, it provides an inspiring setting for open dialogue\, interdi
 sciplinary collaboration\, and creative thinking.Following an Aspen-style 
 format\, the workshop emphasizes extended interaction and in-depth scienti
 fic exchange in an informal setting. Participants are free to arrange thei
 r schedules throughout the two-week period and are encouraged to stay for 
 at least one week. In addition to scheduled discussions and meetings\, amp
 le time will be available for spontaneous conversations\, focused brainsto
 rming sessions\, and collaborative research activities in the unique envir
 onment of Dali.Scientific Organizing Committee Co-ChairsProf. Min Chen\, S
