Call for Abstracts

QFS2004 presenters are required to submit an abstract by 16 April 2004. An appropriate form will be available for web-based submission. Abstracts received after the deadline might be included in the program at the discretion of the Program Chair. A Program/Abstracts Book, including all abstracts of posters and talks presented by registered participants, will be distributed at check-in for QFS2004. Acceptance of an abstract does not guarantee the acceptance of the associated full paper in the special issue(s) of the Journal of Low Temperature Physics containing the symposium Proceedings.

Financial support

The organizers have limited funds to provide financial aid for participants with no other form of support. These funds will be used to help cover the registration and lodging. If you wish to apply, fill the appropriate fields in the registration form and send it before 26 March 2004, without payment. The financial assistance commitments will be made on or before 16 April. A message will be sent with the notification of the financial aid status. The level of support to be provided will depend upon the number of requests and the total amount of funds available. All people requesting financial aid are expected to have submitted an abstract on their original research for presentation at QFS2004.

Visa

To avoid any incidents of visas being refused or unduly delayed, we remind that visas should be applied for very early, at least three months before the conference!

To secure IUPAP sponsorship, the organizers have provided assurance that QFS2004 will be conducted in accordance with IUPAP principles as stated in the ICSU-Document "Universality of Science" (sixth edition, 1989) regarding the free circulation of scientists for international purposes. In particular, no bona fide scientist will be excluded from participation on the grounds of national origin, nationality, or political considerations unrelated to science.
