VII International School on Neutron Physics (Dubna,Russia)

[Eugene Kornilov]

DEAR COLLEAGUES,

        The Frank Laboratory of Neutron Physics and University Centre of the
        Joint Institute for Nuclear Research (Dubna, Russia) are organizing
        the VII International School on Neutron Physics. Specialists working
        in the field of neutron physics will lecture and present reviews on
        the development of neutron sources in the world and the present
        status and development prospects of experimental and theoretical
        research in fundamental neutron physics, nuclear physics, condensed
        matter physics, and neutron applications in ecology and novel
        technologies.

        The Organizing Committee is planning the School to be mainly
        orientated to students of senior courses, graduates of universities
        and institutes, and young scientists.

        The School will be held in two sessions on the campus of the Ratmino
        vacation complex near Dubna. The first session on NUCLEAR PHYSICS
        will be held from 3 to 12 September, and the second session on
        CONDENSED MATTER PHYSICS from 14 to 22 September, 1995.

        The working languages of the School will be Russian and English.

        The Registration Fee of $100 for students and $200 for other
        participants for the period of one session includes accommodation and
        all meals. JINR can provide partial support to students on
        application.

        The Organizing Committee asks you to distribute this information among
        interested people in your institution and provide all possible
        support to those wishing to attend.

        The Second Announcement containing the Preliminary Program and
        participation details will be distributed in March 1995. Applications
        for participation should be sent to the Scientific Secretary of the
        School, Dr. E.I.Kornilov, to the address at the bottom of the letter.
