[Neutron] NASCES11 1st circular

[arai (J-PARC)]

Dear researchers in neutron sciences,

It is our great pleasure to inform you that we will hold an
international workshop "Neutron Application on Strongly Correlated
Electron System 2011 (NASCES11)" on 23-25 February, 2011, in Tokai, the
J-PARC home ground, under auspices of J-PARC, ISIS and SNS.

The following is the NASCES11 1st circular. Detailed information will be
available soon on the conference web site
 http://j-parc.jp/MatLife/en/meetings/NASCES/.
We would appreciate if you would distribute this circular to your
colleagues.

Best regards,

Masa Arai, J-PARC, JAEA

==============  First Circular  ==============

NASCES11: Neutron Applications on Strongly Correlated Electron Systems 2011
                            to be held
                     in Tokai, Ibaraki Japan
                     February 23-25, 2011


Scope:
Neutron scattering is undoubtedly a powerful technique for study on
strongly correlated electron systems. Recent development of
new-generation neutron scattering facilities, such as ISIS, SNS and
J-PARC, and experimental techniques like neutron polarimetry in addition
to several upgrades of existing facilities should promise further
advancements in this research field. On these circumstances, we hold a
workshop where the forefronts of neutron applications on strongly
correlated electron systems are to be discussed. The workshop will include:
- Superconductors (cupper oxides, iron-based compounds, and others)
- Multiferroics
- Rattling Materials
- f-electron Systems
- Low-Dimensional Systems
- Frustrated Spin Systems
- Cutting Edge Instrumentations and Data Analysis Softwares

Venue:
IBARAKI Quantum Beam Research Center (IQBRC),
which locates just in front of the main gate of Japan Atomic Energy
Agency, the home ground of J-PARC
(http://is.j-parc.jp/uo/english/index_e.html).

Registration:
Registration and abstract submission will be available via NASCES11
official website:
http://j-parc.jp/MatLife/en/meetings/NASCES/.

Proceedings:
Proceedings will be published as a refereed journal. Review articles of
highlighted topics will be published as one of the Springer Series on
Neutron Scattering Applications and Techniques.
