The organizing committee has decided to postpone the international symposium

The organizing committee has decided to postpone the international symposium g International Symposium on Physics and Chemistry of Novel Superconductors and Related Materialsh scheduled on March 30-31, at Okayama University, because of some problems caused by the heavy earthquake. In this circumstances, we would really appreciate if you could kindly accept our decision. The international symposium will be held in the suitable date for contributing to international research activity in this field.



Information on International Symposium

International Symposium on Physics and Chemistry of Novel Superconductors and Related Materials

The International Symposium on Physics and Chemistry of Novel Superconductors and Related Materials will be held during March 30 - 31, 2011, at Okayama University. The purpose of this gathering is to provide a forum for discussing the recent progress in researches on various novel superconductors and related materials. The symposium will cover a wide variety of superconductors such as light-element superconductors ( C60, hydrocarbon, graphite and diamond), iron-based superconductors, copper-oxide superconductors and heavy Fermion systems. Furthermore, the interface superconductors and field-induced superconductivity will also be the center of topics in this conference.


Date  :  30 - 31 March 2011.

Place  :   Conference Room, School of Science, Okayama University.
