CCP2 Workshop on Mathematical and Computational Methods in R-matrix Theory

13 - 15 September 2007, University College London, UK.

Please find the workshop programme here.

The workshop will bring together researchers using and developing R-matrix methods to describe electron (positron) atom and molecule scattering, ionization and interactions with light. The workshop will demonstrate the great diversity and strength of applications of R-matrix theory in atomic, molecular and optical physics, while also providing an opportunity to pool experience and expertise in theoretical techniques, algorithms and efficient (high performance) computational methodology. Open discussion will be welcome.

The talks will be published in the form of a book that will be sent to all participants. The workshop follows the QuAMP IV conference at UCL (see also this link) and will begin with a reception on the evening of 13 September. A workshop dinner will be arranged for 14 September.
