Research Workshop
Nucleation Theory and Applications

Dubna, Russia, April 3-28, 2000

Third Announcement

(The Second Announcement)
(The First Announcement)




General Information
Research workshops on Nucleation Theory and Applications have been organised at the Joint Institute for Nuclear Research in Dubna, Russia, since 1997 every year in April in close co-operation between the Department of Physics of the University of Rostock, Germany (Dr. Juern W. P. Schmelzer, Prof. Gerd Roepke) and the Bogoliubov Laboratory of Theoretical Physics, Dubna, Russia (Prof. Vyatcheslav B. Priezzhev, Dr. Vyatcheslav I. Zhuravlev, Galina G. Sandukovskaya). The organisation of the workshops was supported by colleagues from the International Department of the JINR. This series of workshops will be continued this year.

The general aim and the topics of discussion of the next workshop to be held in April 2000 at the Bogoliubov Laboratory of Theoretical Physics of the Joint Institute for Nuclear Research in Dubna, Russia, is described in the previous announcements and on the homepage of the Laboratory (http://www.jinr.dubna.su). In the present 3rd announcement the preliminary program is given and some organisational topics are addressed.




Timetable
  • The research and scientific communication meeting will be held in Dubna, April 2000, for a period of one month; hereby the mutual detailed information on the research carried out in the different groups (workshop part) will be covered primarily in the time from April 15 (arrival), till April, 23 (departure) 2000. There have been so many proposals for very interesting talks that the workshop will be started already on Sunday, April 16 with a full program.
  • Work on common projects under way (03. 04. - 29. 04. 2000) by special arrangement.
  • Mutual research visits of the participants in the course of the year (in dependence on financial funds available).

Some Hints
The time for the speakers in their lectures is - if not specified otherwise - not limited to allow a detailed explanation even of details of the research and an extensive discussion. Nevertheless, to have some order in anticipating the program, commonly 1 1/2 hours are taken as a rough estimate for the duration of one lecture. The sessions are organised as follows: 9. 00 - 10. 30; 11.00 - 12. 30; Lunch; 14. 00 - 15. 30; 16. 00 -17. 30. Note, however, that changes in the schedule are possible at any time.

The workshop languages are English and Russian. If required, from time to time brief summaries of the content in the respective alternative language will be given.

Financial Regulations
No conference fee is required. We will cover the costs for the stay in Dubna and the travel expenses (railway tickets) for invited speakers from Russia and the former Soviet republics to Dubna and back.
