ICOPS is an annual conference coordinated by the Plasma Science and Application
Committee (PSAC) of the IEEE Nuclear & Plasma Sciences Society (NPSS). The 1

General Chair:stAsia-Pacific Conference on Plasma and Terahertz Science (APCOPTS) was organized in
Xi'an, China, as the future Asian version of ICOPS in 2018, which has strong component
on fast emerging terahertz science. The ICOPS 2024 is organized together with the 4 th
APCOPTS. The program of the 51st ICOPS & 4th APCOPTS covers both traditional areasof plasma and terahertz science and new exploratory research areas. The conference
offers an outstanding forum for scientists and engineers to learn further about some of theTao Shao

greatest advances in plasma science and technology, terahertz science and new
