The Amazonian Symposium on Physics (ASP) is an introductory to mid-level symposium intended to be regularly held by the Graduate Program in Physics at the Pará University, presently a Federated Institution of the ICTP.

           This second edition of the Amazonian Symposium on Physics will be mainly focused on Analogue Models of Gravity, celebrating the 30 years of the publication of Bill Unruh’s paper "Experimental Black-Hole Evaporation?" (PRL, vol. 46, p. 1351-1353, 1981), which played a seminal role leading to the currently vibrant field of Analogue Models of Gravity.

           The Amazonian Symposium on Physics is targeted for young researchers and graduate students in Physics, as well as for last-year undergraduate students, wishing to quickly learn the basics of the Analogue Models of Gravity, which is a rapidly developing field, from some of the world’s leading experts.

           The II ASP will be held in the Belém Campus of the Federal University of Pará. In the gateway to Amazonia, the Belém Campus is located on the shore of the river Guamá, one of the rivers which form the Guajará bay.
