Finite Systems
                  P R O G R A M    Ringberg Meeting

Theory Group (MPQ) und
Endliche Systeme & Nichtlineare Dynamik in Quantensystemen (MPIPKS)

February 7 - 11., 2000

Organization: A. Buchleitner

***** All talks 30 minutes + 10 minutes discussion *****
 (rather strict limits)

***** Please prepare talks for broad, nonspecialized audience *****
 (i.e. give basic definitions and descriptions, mention
interesting problems related to your subject, describe
goals of studies presented in your talk, try to leave
more technical details for questions and private discussions)
