=====  First Circular  =====
 

Dear Colleague,

  We are pleased to announce that for its 10th anniversary in September 2003 the Nuclear Theory Workshop in Kazimierz will be very international with English as the conference language. In previous years this workshop was always attended by several foreign guests, mostly from France, but the conference language was to a large part Polish. Experimental nuclear physicists have always been welcome to this workshop. We would like, however, to put a special emphasis for the 2003 edition of the workshop on a large participation of our colleagues experimentalists to favor a dialogue profitable to all of us.

  We were first worried if such changes as compared to previous workshops make any sense, since there are quite a few conferences in nuclear physics organized throughout the year. We have therefore sent out in October 2002 an intention letter among our French colleagues and some physicists worldwide known as Franco- or Polono-philes. The response was rapid and quite encouraging for us: already now we are expecting in Kazimierz 25 French physicists, 5 from Germany, 4 from Spain, 2 from Belgium and 5 from 'the rest of the World'.... We have reserved one of the best hotels in Kazimierz with quite good standard which can house 90 people in the main building and 12 in some adjacent house. We are therefore able to accommodate the senior Physicists participating, but also a certain number of PhD and diploma students. It is worthwhile mentioning here that typically half of the participants in the Kazimierz workshops in previous years were young people. We hope that you, too, will bring some of your students along.

  In the following we are going to give you some details about the planned Workshop. In this first circular nothing will be said about the entertainments we are preparing for you, but you can be sure that your stay in Kazimierz will never be boring. Our students and the renaissance environment in Kazimierz will take care of that!

 Welcome to the Workshop!

 Sincerely yours,

Krzysztof Pomorski (UMCS)
and
Johann Bartel (IReS)

 
 

Objective :
--------------------

  This is the 10th Marie and Pierre Curie Workshop in the field of Theoretical Nuclear Physics. It follows the tradition of the school of Zdzislaw Szymanski, who was one of the major promoters of the Kazimierz meetings. The purpose of these workshops traditionally is to bring senior scientists and students together to discuss topical problems in our field, including difficult or hard-to-solve topics.

  The 10th Workshop also offers an opportunity for close interactions between experimental and theoretical nuclear physicists. We hope that this workshop will give a good opportunity to summarize developments in nuclear physics in the past few years, and make scope for closer collaborations between different groups.

The symposium will in particular address the following topics:

 1. Structure of heavy and unstable nuclei
 2. High spin physics
 3. Fission and fusion dynamics
 4. Nuclear shell model
 5. Beyond the mean-field approximation
 6. Exotic nuclear processes
 7. Nuclear clustering and quasi-molecules
 8. Large aggregates of fermions
 9. Safe nuclear energy and environmental protection.

 Those who are interested in the workshop and wish to receive the second circular are requested to fill in the form attached below and send it to us by May 31, 2003.
