Announcement of International Seminar on
 Atomic Processes in Plasmas
(Satellite Meeting of the XXI ICPEAC)

Organized by the National Institute for Fusion Science (NIFS)
Place: National Institute for Fusion Science,  Toki, Gifu, Japan
Date: July 29 (Thu.) - July 30 (Fri.), 1999

Scope of the seminar
   This satellite meeting is intended for exchange of scientific
information and discussions among scientists who are interested in atomic
processes in plasmas: laboratory fusion plasma, laser produced plasma,
astrophysical plasmas and industrial plasmas like processing plasma and
discharge lamps.
The following topics will be covered:
        Electron - atom/ion collisions (excitation, ionization, recombination)
        Ion atom/ion/molecule collisions
        Molecular processes in plasma
        EBIT experiments
        X-ray sources and lasers
        Plasma density effect on fundamental atomic processes
        Plasma transport and atomic processes (e.g. dynamics of high
Rydberg atoms)
        Atomic data codes
        Atomic databases
        Collisional radiative model, Atomic kinetics codes
        Plasma spectroscopy
The scientific program will be composed of invited talks and contributed
papers, covering both experimental and theoretical aspects.  There will be
oral and poster sessions.

Call for papers, Registration, Accommodation
    Contributed papers are welcome.  If you are planning to submit papers
or to attend the meeting, please fill in and return the attached
Registration Form not later than April 30, 1999.  Email and WWW addresses
