Rencontres du Vietnam – Institute of Physics and Electronics, Hanoi

XII-th VIETNAM SCHOOL OF PHYSICS

Hanoi, 26 December 2005 – 07 January 2006

ANNOUNCEMENT
(Annoucement 1)

The Vietnam School of Physics (VSOP) is a series of high level international schools of physics organized every year since 1994 in different places in Vietnam by "Rencontres du Vietnam", France, and Institute of Physics and Electronics (former Institute of Physics), Vietnam. For eleven years, the VSOP has been attended by about 450 young physicists of Vietnam (about 360) and other countries (90) under tutorship of 85 lecturers from Vietnam (21) and other countries. The schools cover a wide range of fundamental and modern topics of condensed matter physics, particle physics, astrophysics and cosmology.

Like the previous Vietnam Schools of Physics, the upcoming XII-th School will deal with topics on

Quantum Field Theory and applications to particle physics
and condensed matter physics.

For two weeks the school program will include lectures and exercise sessions as well as “mini-seminars” sessions where participants are encouraged to present short contributions in their fields of interest (with the help of senior participants). Applicants should have completed a Master's degree (or equivalent) in physics. Preference will be given to young physicists working towards a Ph.D. degree or working at a post-doctoral level. More senior physicists, however, are also welcome to apply.

The school will accept about 40 students, expected to come principally from Vietnam and Asian countries. Some support may be available for participants from developing countries.

A postschool workshop entitled

"PHYSICS FOR LARGE AND SMALL SCALE:
from the Planck scale through nano scales to cosmological distances"

will be organized from 8th - 10th of January 2006.

The school and the worshop are partly supported by the APCTP (Pohang, Korea) and the Abdus Salam ICTP (Trieste, Italy) as external activities.
