by: TcSUH Administration

Date: Sunday August 01, 2010

Time: 12:00 am – 12:00 am

Location: Washington, D. C. USA

Overview

ASC 2010 will be a five day conference bringing together leaders in the commercial, military, research, university, and industrial communities from around the world to discuss progress and challenges in the field of applied superconductivity. There will be several plenary sessions focused on overviews and the broad prospectus of the field, exhibitors from major superconducting and cryogenic companies, as well as daily technical discussions from an anticipated 1400 attendees from 70 countries.

The International Conference on Strongly Correlated Electron Systems

by: TcSUH Administration

Date: Sunday May 13, 2007

Time: 12:00 am – 12:00 am

Location: Houston Science Center – Building 593 — Room 102

Overview

SCES'07 will cover a wide range of topics in the diverse area of strongly correlated systems. The correlated electronic and magnetic materials to be featured include f-electron based heavy fermion intermetallics, d-electron based transition metal compounds, and organic solids. Nanoscale structures and ultracold atoms in optical lattices, which have emerged as model systems to study correlation physics, will also be addressed. The conference will seek to deepen our understanding of the rich physical phenomena that arise from correlation effects. The anticipated focus will be on quantum phase transitions, non-Fermi liquid phenomena, quantum magnetism, unconventional superconductivity, and metal-insulator transitions. Both experimental and theoretical work will be highlighted. Mathematical models and computational studies will also be covered.

The conference will provide a forum to present new research and exchange new ideas. It will also facilitate cross fertilization among the different subjects, and introduce these subjects to junior researchers. Presentations will consist of plenary, invited and contributed talks/symposia complemented by busy poster sessions.

SCES'07 will add Houston to the long list of cities that welcomed the conference series: Sendai ('92), San Diego ('93), Amsterdam ('94), Goa ('95), Zürich ('96), Paris ('98), Nagano ('99), Ann Arbor ('01), Krakow ('02), Karlsruhe ('04), and Vienna ('05). Every three years since 1997, SCES has been joining the triennial International Conference on Magnetism, held in: Cairns ('97), Recife ('00), Rome ('03), and Kyoto ('06).

4th U.S. Air Force-Taiwan Nanoscience Initiative Workshop

by: TcSUH Administration

Date: Thursday February 08, 2007

Time: 7:30 am – 9:30 pm

Location: Houston Science Center – Building 593 — Room 102

Overview

The Air Force Office of Scientific Research (AFOSR) of the U.S. Air Force Research Laboratory (AFRL) and National Science Council (NSC) in Taiwan and are pleased to announce that the 4th U.S. Air Force/Taiwan Nanoscience and Nanotechnology workshop will be held on February 8-9, 2007 at the main campus of the University of Houston (UH). All oral and poster presentations will be held in the UH Athletics/Alumni Center, located at 3100 Cullen Boulevard, Houston, TX 77004. We invite you to join us at the workshop.

The first and second Taiwan/U.S. Air Force workshops were held in Maui and Honolulu, Hawaii, and the third was held in Hualien, Taiwan. This series of U.S. Air Force/Taiwan Nanoscience Initiative Workshops aims to provide a stimulating and thought-provoking forum for sharing the latest technical developments and ideas in nanoscience and nanotechnology.
