==================================================

The First J-PARC International Symposium
International Symposium on Pulsed Neutron and Muon Sciences (IPS 08)

The First Announcement

March 5-7, 2008
Ibarakiken Shichouson Kaikan
Mito, Japan

Organized by
J-PARC-Center

Co-organized by
Institute of Materials Structure Science, High Energy Accelerator Research
Organization
Quantum Beam Science Directorate, Japan Atomic Energy Agency

Call for Participation
We would like to invite you to join the International Symposium on Pulsed
Neutron and Muon Sciences at J-PARC 2008 (IPS 08) organized by J-PARC
center, which will be held on March 5-7, 2008 in Mito, Japan.  Japan Proton
Accelerator Research Complex, J-PARC, is an interdisciplinary facility using
secondary particles produced by the world highest pulsed proton beams, and
it is scheduled to deliver the first proton beam to the Materials and Life
science experimental Facility (MLF) in May, 2008.  The symposium will focus
on the high intensity pulsed spallation neutron and muon sources at MLF, in
which the first user program will begin in J-PARC.  IPS08 will provide an
opportunity to introduce the performance of J-PARC and other facilities in
the world, and discuss prospective sciences and technologies performed in
those facilities.

Symposium Venue
The symposium will be held at the “Ibarakiken Shichouson Kaikan” which is
next to the Ibaraki Prefectural Government's Buildings in Mito city.
