First Congress of the ISTCP (part one)
Announcement for the First Congress of the
International Society for Theoretical Chemical Physics
(ISTCP)
The first Congress of the International Society for Theoretical
Chemical Physics will be held during the first week of July 1993 at
the Mediterranean coast in Spain close to the city of Girona, a
medieval spot in the northeastern part of Catalonia near to the French
border. A number of 300 participants is expected and we plan to have
about 25 invited papers, 40 contributed papers, 5 round table
discussions, and posters. All contributions are planned to be
published, after review, in due time. The participation fee will be
US$ 350 (US$ 250 for members of the Society). This includes admission
to the above mentioned events. Workshops on Computational Chemistry,
SCF Theory and Molecular Similarity are planned to be held before and
after the Congress, respectively.
The main topics covered by the conference will be new and recent
developments on:
- Mathematical Methods in Chemistry
- Fractals
- Feynman Path Integrals
- Algebraic Methods
- Computational Techniques
- Vectorial and Parallel Algorithms
- Integrals and Basis Sets
- Direct SCF and MCSCF
- Direct CI
- Chemical Dynamics
- Theory of Chemical Reactions (mostly on the basis of
scattering theory)
- Time Dependent Treatment
- Recent Developments in Quantum Chemistry
- Modern VB Theory
- Density Matrix Methods
- Electronic Correlation
- High Order Perturbation Theory
- Relativistic Quantum Chemistry
- Beyond the Born-Oppenheimer Approximation
- Treatment of the Time Dependent Schrodinger

Scientists working in the field of Theoretical Chemical Physics
are warmly welcome to participate in and to contribute papers or
posters to the meeting. Due to the well known world wide economic
restrictions we encourage all participants to ask their own national
institutions to cover their travel and living expenses. Detailed
informations on the hotel prices will depend on the final number of
participants and will be supplied later on (a rough estimate amounts
to about a total of US$ 500, full board, for five days). A limited
number of stipends will be hopefully available to cover partially the
costs especially for younger participants.
If you are interested to participate please fill the attached
form and return it at your earliest convenience to :
