Dear Colleague
The scientific program of International workshop on
"Explosive Phenomena in Magnetized Plasma - New Development of
Reconnection Research" which will be held on March 17-19,
at Yukawa Institute of Kyoto University, Kyoto, Japan,
is now fixed as in the following. Please check it, and if you
find errors, please let us konw them as soon as possible.
The size of poster paper is 90cm x 180cm. The poster presentation time
will be planned in 1st and 2nd days.
Please prepare 2 min presentation (either ppt or viewgraph) if your paper
is accepted as a poster paper.
The banquet will be planned in the evening of 2nd day (Mar. 18).
The banquet fee will be about 6000 yen. If you wish to attend the
banquet and if you have not sent us the banquet registration form,
please send it to us as soon as possible.
Other important information (how to reach conference place, etc.)
will be announced through the home page
of the workshop, so please look at
http://www.kwasan.kyoto-u.ac.jp/reconnection2004/
as frequent as possible.
Looking forward to seeing you soon in Kyoto.
Sincerely,
