Total Energy XVI


XVI INTERNATIONAL WORKSHOP ON COMPUTATIONAL PHYSICS AND MATERIALS SCIENCE: TOTAL ENERGY AND FORCE METHODS

10-12 January 2013, Trieste (Italy)




Organisers: C. Filippi, R. M. Martin, N. Binggeli

Venue: ICTP, Trieste (ITALY)

Deadline: 5 November 2012

Complete information on the official website.



This Workshop will follow the series started in Oxford, U.K. (1983) and continued in Braunschweig, Germany (1984) and in Trieste, Italy (since 1987, every two years). Following the tradition of the previous meetings, the Workshop will be devoted to recent advances in computational condensed matter physics and materials science, based on realistic calculations of the electronic structure of complex systems.

The activity will be held at the Abdus Salam International Centre for Theoretical Physics (ICTP), Trieste, Italy from 10 to 12 January 2013 with the co-sponsorship of the International School for Advanced Studies (SISSA), the CNR-IOM DEMOCRITOS Simulation Center, the Consorzio per la Fisica-Trieste, and Psi-K.

As in previous events of this series, the Workshop will consist of invited talks and a contributed poster session, with ample space devoted to discussion.

CALL FOR CONTRIBUTED POSTERS
During the activity there will be one or more poster sessions. If you want to present a poster, please indicate this in the corresponding field of the online registration and upload an abstract of the poster there no later than 5 November 2012. You can download a template for the abstract in .doc or in .tex format at the conference website: http://cdsagenda5.ictp.trieste.it/full_display.php?smr=0&ida=a12161
REGISTRATION
Attendance is open and free, but it is necessary to register on a first-come, first-served basis (room capacity constrains us to a maximum of 300 participants, including the speakers). To register, please follow the link: http://cdsagenda5.ictp.trieste.it/full_display.php?smr=0&ida=a12161
HANDS-ON TUTORIAL ON ELECTRONIC STRUCTURE COMPUTATIONS
A Hands-on Tutorial on Electronic Structure Computations will be organized in the week following the Workshop, January 14-18, 2013. Advanced topics like electronic transport, excitations (TDDFT and GW) and Quantum Monte Carlo computations will be treated. Students and young postdocs with a proven experience in ab-initio electronic structure computations may participate in this tutorial. The Tutorial is open only for participants of the Workshop.

For further information on the hands-on tutorial, please follow the link: http://cdsagenda5.ictp.trieste.it/full_display.php?smr=0&ida=a12255
