“PolaRoma” events
4th Italo-Russian meeting on Solid State Physics of the XXI Century, March 19th, 2010
An Italo-Russian workshop on theoretical condensed matter physics will be organized by the Marie-Curie Chair of Excellence "Polaroma" in Castelgandolfo (near Rome) on March 19th 2010, following on the success of the first, second and third Italian-Russian theoretical workshops, which took place in Rome in the spring of 2007, 2008, and 2009 respectively. The meeting itself will take place at the Country Golf Club "Castelgandolfo".
Please note: the fee for payment on-site is 400 euro (not applied to the invited speakers).
