How to login to the Indico event

Getting to the Indico event

The address of the indico event you want to access is surely published on the website of the conference (e.g., https://ipac23.org, https://ipac24.org etc.)

The usual URL for JACoW conferenes on indico.jacow.org is https://indico.jacow.org/e/{CONFERENCE} (e.g. IPAC'24, LINAC2024 etc.)

Your JACoW account

All JACoW conference are organised around the JACoW Central Repository which is an enormous database of profiles (personal data including name, email and affiliation) and accounts (profiles with a username and password which allow login). Profiles are usually created by authors while submitting an abstract and adding co-authors not yet present in the Central Repository. Accounts can be created by any individual.

To login to this special JACoW Indico installation, please be sure to use your JACoW account from the JACoW Central Repository, which usually is not your email address.

In case you lost your username, please read the next section.
