    Bulletin of The ISRAEL PHYSICAL SOCIETY cbd IPS2010 הכנס ה56- של האגודה הישראלית לפיזיקה The 56th meeting of the Israel Physical Society כ"ח בכסלו תשע"א נר רביעי של חנוכה 5.12.2010 Volume 56, 2010 Welcome to IPS2010 Welcome to IPS2010 – The 56th Annual Meeting of the Israel Physical Society. We have an exciting and packed program lined up for today’s meeting, with over 200 contributions, covering a wide range of topics in physics and its related disciplines. The format of the IPS Meetings has evolved in recent years under the guidance of the IPS Council. It began with the introduction of Review Lectures at IPS2006 (HUJI), and short parallel talks at IPS2007 (WIS), leading to the present format, introduced at IPS2009 (BIU) and expanded here. We open and close the meeting with Plenary Sessions, which will be held at Bar-Shira Auditorium. The opening plenary lecture will be given by M. Zahid Hasan, from Princeton University, who will talk about topological insulators and superconductors. The closing plenary lecture will be given by Douglas D. Osheroff, from Stanford University. He will tell us the story of his discovery of superfluidity in 3He, while still a graduate student at Cornell, for which he shared the 1996 Nobel Prize in Physics. Note that Prof. Osheroff will be giving a second talk at Tel Aviv University, on Tuesday 7/12/2010 at 17:00, in Lev Auditorium, on the nuclear spin ordered phases of solid 3He. All other activities will take place in the buildings of the Faculty of Exact Sciences.
