Departure of the participants Some Hints Concerning Presentations

The time for the speakers in their lectures is not strictly limited to allow a detailed explanation even of details of the research and an extensive discussion. Nevertheless, due to the large number of highly interesting contributions proposed and to have some order in anticipating the program, commonly - if not specified otherwise - either 1 hour or 30 minutes are taken as a rough estimate for the duration of one lecture including the discussion. But slight changes in the schedule are possible at any time.

The workshop languages are English and Russian. If possible, English should be preferred. At least, the transparencies or Power-Point presentations should be written in English. Summaries of the content in the respective alternative language will be given simultaneously.

Entry Permission and Some Additional Remarks

For entry permission to the Laboratory of Theoretical Physics, please submit us next days the following information (if not available already):

1. Name: 2. Surname and fathers name: 3. Citizenship: 4. Date/Place of birth: 5. Passport (number and expiry date): 6. Place of work (mailing address): 7. Phone, fax, Email-connections:

We will try to get the permission for all participants, to take their Laptop in and out of the territory of the institute during the time of the workshop (it is not a problem to take the notebook into the laboratory but to get it out may be complicated). A beamer will be available to allow for Powerpoint or similar presentations.

Note as well that for taking photos inside the territory of the institute, a special permission is required. So, if you have some plans in this respect, please, let us know it in advance.

Accomodation and Financial Regulations

No conference fee is required. We will cover the costs for the stay in Dubna and the travel expenses (railway tickets) for invited speakers from Russia and the former Soviet Republics to Dubna and back (for refunding the expenses, please, do not forget to take a komandiro- votschnoe udostoverenie with you). In dependence on the funds available, we can try to support - in very limited cases - also the stay of colleagues beyond the circle mentioned above.

Accomodation will be reserved in the old/new hotel Dubna about 10 minutes walk from the railway station (it is not clear till now which hotel will be available, I will inform you later). For colleagues arriving by train, a shuttle service will be organized. So, these colleagues are asked to submit in advance the dates/times of arrival and departure and flight numbers.

For colleagues arriving by train, below the schedule of the train connections from Savelovo railway station to Dubna is supplied. Changes are possible here, so check it at the homepage of the JINR.
