Dubna - Spin09 Joint Institute for Nuclear Research International Committee for Spin Physics Symposia Russian Foundation for Basic Research European Physical Society XIII WORKSHOP ON HIGH ENERGY SPIN PHYSICS Dubna, September 1 - 5, 2009 INFORMATION BULLETIN The Bogoliubov Laboratory of Theoretical Physics of the Joint Institute for Nuclear Research is organizing the "XIII Workshop on High Energy Spin Physics ", which will take place in Dubna, Russia, September 1 - 5, 2009 The First Workshop on High Energy Spin Physics chaired by Prof. L.I. Lapidus was held in Dubna 26 years ago. This was followed by the series of biennial workshops in the odd years. The recent one was in Dubna on September 3-7, 2007. The Proceedings of the workshop with talks and discussions are available from the Publishing Department of JINR at http://www1.jinr.ru/Proceedings/Proceedings_index.html. The XIII Workshop will take place in Dubna on September 1-5, 2009 under the sponsorship of JINR and the International Committee for High Energy Spin Physics Symposia as a joint Dubna-Prague-Warsaw Workshop. We hope that it offers an opportunity to a large group of physicists and students from Russia and other JINR Member States to get acquainted with the most recent experimental and theoretical results in the spin physics. About 100 scientists from different research centers are expected to participate. Scientific Program The Workshop will cover a wide range of spin phenomena at high and intermediate energies such as: ● recent experimental data on spin physics ● the nucleon spin structure and GPD's ● spin physics and QCD ● spin physics beyond the Standard Model ● T-odd spin effects ● polarization and heavy ion physics ● the future spin physics facilities ● polarimeters for high energy polarized beams ● acceleration and storage of polarized beams ● the new polarization technology ● related subjects Location The Workshop will be held in the Bogoliubov Laboratory of Theoretical Physics of the Joint Institute for Nuclear Research, 141980 Dubna, Moscow Region, Russia. The program of the workshop will include plenary and parallel (if necessary) sessions. Plenary sessions will be held file:///J|/public_html/2009/info.html (1 of 4)15.04.2009 19:39:55 Dubna - Spin09 in the Conference Hall. Parallel sections will take place in the same building. There will be invited talks (up to 40 min) and original reports (20 min). The invited speakers will present new experimental and theoretical results, and recent progress in technology. The abstracts for reports should be submitted in text format with the simplest Latex notations to the Organizing Committee by June 15, 2009. The Workshop working language will be English. Publication The contributions (in LaTex form) presented should be sent to the Organizing Committee by November 15, 2009. The volume of an original report, including tables, figures and references should not exceed 4 pages and that of an invited talk - 9 pages. The Workshop Proceedings will be published soon after the Workshop and will be sent out to all the registered participants. About the Town Dubna is a quiet and pleasing town 132 km north of Moscow situated on the picturesque banks of the Volga river. There is a railway and bus communication between Dubna and Moscow. Its surroundings offer a peaceful rural scenery which, though having no famous monuments, keeps memories of the past. Two hours trip brings you to Moscow or Sergiev Posad (the Russian Orthodox center with its 500-year-old Trinity Monastery) or to Klin with famous Tchaikovsky home museum. There is also a possibility to organize a special one day tour to Moscow or/and Sergiev Posad on September 6 (for additional payment) if the number of interested people will be enough. Transportation and Accommodation Transportation from/to the Moscow airport Sheremetievo or any Moscow railway station will be provided by the organizers. Information on the arrival date, time and flight/train number should be sent to the Workshop Coordinator by August 15, 2009. During the Workshop the participants will be accommodated in the local Dubna hotel. To reach the workshop place from the hotel no local transport is needed (see plan). Climate In September temperature usually fluctuates from +10/15C at night up to +15/20 C in the daytime, rains are quite possible. Visa and Registration The registration fee will be EUR 400 (in cash only) for participants and EUR 200 for accompanying persons. It can also be paid in US dollars. The registration fee includes: car transportation from Moscow airport or railway stations to Dubna and back, hotel accommodation (single room with shower and breakfast, more luxury accommodation will also be available for additional payment), coffee breaks, welcome party, banquet, social events and a copy of the Workshop Proceedings. The fee will be collected in Dubna, during the registration of the participants. Some limited financial support might be possible on request preferably for young scientists from Russia and other JINR Member States and European countries. To arrange visa support participants are kindly requested to inform the Organizing Committee of their personal data. The Registration Form, duly filled up as well as a scanned copy in jpg format of the passport most important pages has to be sent before June 15, 2009 to the Workshop Coordinator. In addition, if one applies for the visa in not one's native country, a scanned copy of the document permitting one's stay in that country is also necessary file:///J|/public_html/2009/info.html (2 of 4)15.04.2009 19:39:55 Dubna - Spin09 Advisory body: International Committee for Spin Physics Symposia K.
