Workshop on
Dynamical Approaches in Atomic and Cluster Physics

December 4 - 9, 2000

Scientific Coordinators:

Nürnberg/Erlangen     Dresden   

Advanced experimental techniques, e.g., femtosecond laser pulses and highly charged ion beams, access new dynamical regimes at the atomic level. As a consequence, the evolution of transition probabilities in the course of time, e.g., can be observed directly. New approaches for a thorough dynamical description of those processes far off equilibrium must be formulated. As the field is developing rapidly we feel that it is useful to have occasionally small meetings where the practioners can discuss recent progress (and failures).

The double-workshop on Atoms (December, 4 - 6th) and Clusters (December 6 - 8th) announced above aims to be such an informal meeting with a mixture of talks and time for discussions.
