Dear colleagues,
this is the second announcement of the XVIth Conference on Strong and Electroweak Matter 2024, to be held from 26-30 August 2024 at Goethe University in Frankfurt am Main, Germany.
The conference will be held on the Riedberg Science Campus of Goethe University, Frankfurt am Main. The focus of the conference is the theory of the Standard Model and beyond at finite temperature and density, in and out of equilibrium, as well as applications to relativistic heavy-ion collisions, astrophysics and cosmology.
The program will consist of a mix of invited (40+5 min.) and contributed (20+5 min.) talks -- all plenary.
Additionally there will be a poster session preceded by Flash Talks that introduce all posters. At registration, participants can choose to contribute either a talk or a poster. However, the number of available slots for talks is limited to 33. If the registered number of talks exceeds the available slots, the local organising committee will redistribute talks to posters.
Confirmed invited speakers are:
• Carlota Andrés (Ecole Polytechnique, CPHT)
• Kirill Boguslavski (TU Vienna)
• Elisa Ferreira (IPMU)
• Adrien Florio (BNL)
• Yuki Fujimoto (Washington U.)

There will be one free afternoon for excursions. At registration, participants can choose between three topical guided tours in Frankfurt and a relaxing cruise on the Main river. In addition, all participants will get a ticket providing free access to over 30 museums in town. The social conference dinner (with vegetarian and vegan options also available) will take place in the evening after the excursion.
