HAWAII 2001: First Joint Meeting of the Nuclear Physicists of the American and Japanese Physical SocietiesMaui, HI; October 17 to October 20, 2001
Conference Experience for Undergraduates (CEU2001)
Deadlines: The deadline for electronic submission of abstracts is 29 June 2001. The meeting ID is HAW01. Instructions and abstract templates can be obtained by sending a message to abs-request@aps.org; enter "request HAW01" as the subject and in the body of the message. Di"RECT" web submission of abstracts is encouraged, because it leads to fewer errors; the LaTeX-based template can handle properly ONLY the commands provided in the template. The early registration deadline is 15 August 2001. For hotel reservations and meeting registration please utilize the web site of the conference coordinators. Please note: The Conference Hotel is full. We recommend searching for available rooms in nearby Kihei.
The annual Fall Meeting will be an historic
first joint meeting of the Division of Nuclear Physics (DNP) of
the American Phys ical Society (APS) and the nuclear physicists
of the Japanese Physical Society (JPS). The meeting will be held
at the Outrigger Walilea Resort on the island of Maui in Hawaii
on 17-20 October 2001. It is our hope that Hawaii 2001 (HAW01)
will serve as a meeting ground to engender cooperation and the
exchange of ideas among nuclear scientists from these and other
Pacific-Rim countries.
All conference meetings and sessions will be held at the Outrigger Walilea Resort located on the sparkling Pacific shores of Maui's south coast. The Outrigger offers multi-lingual guest relations staff, two restaurants, swimming pools, a Hawaiian culture program, etc. The Outrigger Walilea Resort is about 25 miles from the Maui airport. A room rate, which was negotiated by the Conference Coordinator, Carol Kuc, in consultation with the Organizing Committee is $149 (plus tax). This rate includes up to two guests per room. We have reserved 350 rooms at this rate. Because it is difficult to anticipate attendance at this, first of its kind, meeting and because the interest appears to be greater than anticipated, we have opened a web site for early room reservation, so that we can determine whether additional space in adjacent hotels should be sought. Early registration and hotel reservations can be made at the URL: http://www.cccmeetings.com/. HAW01 will be a four-day meeting. There will be no workshops preceding the HAW01 meeting. The additional day will be used for sessions needed to accommodate the two physical societies. A plenary session to open the meeting and to highlight the physics of the two countries is being planned. The remainder of the meeting will consist of morning and afternoon/evening sessions of three to four hours. Typically, these sessions will consist of one invited-paper session running in parallel with multiple sessions of contributed papers and mini-symposia. As is usual, mini-symposia will involve one invited talk followed by contributed papers all on the same topic. The Organizing and Program Committees view mini-symposia as ideal sessions to integrate the two communities along topics of mutual interest. If you have ideas for topics or would like to become involved, please contact the Program Committee Chair for HAW01, Charles Glashausser. The JPS and APS are accustomed to different session structure and time slots. In order to accommodate both Societies at HAW01, contributed talks will be 15 minutes, a 12-minute talk with three minutes allotted for questions and discussion. Invited session talks will be 45 minutes of which 10 minutes will be allotted for questions and discussion. Lead invited talks in mini-symposia will be 30 minutes (25 + 5). All speakers are urged to speak clearly and slowly and to include important points on their transparencies. International Advisory Committee: Akito Arima, Co-Chair John P. Schiffer, Co-Chair Sam M.
