MECO27 STATISTICAL PHYSICS CONFERENCE
SOPRON, HUNGARY
7-9 MARCH 2002
The organizers of the 27th Annual Conference of the Middle European
Cooperation in Statistical Physics (MECO) invite to participate
researchers, both experimentalists and theoreticians, working in
statistical physics. In this year the program of the meeting will
be organized mostly, but not exclusively, around the topics:
- quantum phase transitions
- systems far from equilibrium
- disordered systems and interdisciplinary applications.
THE SCIENTIFIC PROGRAMME will consist of invited lectures, short (20 mins)
oral presentations and poster contributions. Oral presentations will be
selected among those who register and submit an abstract before
15th December 2001.
INVITED SPEAKERS:
Kurt Binder (Mainz): Computer simulation of the structural glass transition
Eytan Domany (Rehovot): Cluster analysis of DNA-chip and antigen-chip data
Michel Droz (Geneve): Critical properties of non-equilibrium phase
transitions
Robert Graham (Essen): Phase-fluctuations in magnetically trapped
Bose-Einstein condensates
Peter Grassberger (Juelich): - no title yet
T. Maurice Rice (Zuerich): The RVB states of electrons on ladders and its
relationship to the high Tc problem
Attilio Stella (Padova): - no title yet
