Research Workshop
Nucleation Theory and Applications
Dubna, Russia, April 3-28, 2000
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 Laboratory of Theoretical Physics of the Joint Institute for Nuclear
Research in Dubna, Russia, is described in the First Announcement and on the
homepage of the Laboratory (http://www.jinr.dubna.su). In the present
announcement the preliminary program is given and some organisational topics are
addressed.

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. Thus,
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.
|
Time--table
|
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).
|
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. In dependence on the funds available, we can
try to support - in very limited cases - also the stay of colleagues beyond the circle
mentioned above.
