Call for papers for the 5th Size-Strain Conference
Dear Colleagues,
the "5th Size-Strain Conference" will take place at the Congress Centre
in Garmisch-Partenkirchen, Germany, in the time period October 7-9 2007
(have a look at the conference homepage www.mf.mpg.de/ss-v for further
information).
This conference on "the diffraction analysis of the microstructure of
matter" forms a focal point of presentation and discussion of scientific
developments in this multidisciplinary field of great importance to
materials scientists, solid state physicists and chemists, and the like.
You are all invited to participate in the Conference. Abstracts of
intended contributions should be submitted as attachments to the
conference e-mail address
[EMAIL PROTECTED]
The deadline for abstract submission is the 31st of March.
The abstracts should be prepared using Microsoft Word, available at the
above-mentioned web site.
Please indicate in your e-mail if you would prefer an oral or a poster
presentation and provide us with your full affiliation. Your e-mail
address will be used for further communication.
For your information, a provisional and incomplete list of confirmed
(status of today) keynote and invited lectures has been included at the
bottom of this e-mail.
Hoping to see you in Garmisch-Partenkirchen,
Andreas Leineweber
