Satellite Meetings
BrisbaneCombinatorics and Mathematical PhysicsCentre for Mathematical Physics, University of Queensland, Brisbane12 – 14 July, 2010
Statistical and mathematical physics are intrinsically related to enumerative and algebraic combinatorics, and these fields have produced an exciting area of cross-fertilisation. This satellite meeting preceding STATPHYS24 recognises the maturity of this field, and will focus on the most recent developments growing out of the interaction between combinatorialists and statistical physicists.
Exactly Solvable Models in Statistical PhysicsCentre for Mathematical Physics, University of Queensland, Brisbane14 – 17 July, 2010
This satellite meeting will cover developments over the last 3 years (since the StatPhys23 Meeting in Genoa) in the area of Exactly Solvable Models in Statistical Physics. Topics to be highlighted include:

BangaloreConference and School on Nucleation, Aggregation and Growth (NAG2010)Jawaharlal Nehru Centre for Advanced Scientific Research, Jakkur P.O, Bangalore - 56006426 – 30 July, 2010 School dates: 1 – 6 August, 2010
The overall scope of the conference is the conceptual understanding of
nucleation, aggregation and growth phenomena with applications of
experimental, theoretical and computational techniques to a diverse range
of physical, chemical and biological systems. To maximize the benefits
of interaction among participants, the current program is organized
around a few focus areas, viz. Soft matter systems, biological assembly,
mechanical behavior and non-equilibrium processes in solids. Nucleation, patterning, glass transition and gelation in colloidal suspensions, self assembly in macromolecular solids, active aggregation in biological systems, fracture, solid state nucleation and microstructures are some of the topics that will be represented. The conference is followed by a school addressing the broader theme of nucleation, aggregation and growth phenomena going beyond the specific themes of the conference. Topics of the school:
Students and researchers interested in participating in the school/conference, and/or present a contributed talk at the conference, Should apply online through the event web site, any time from April 1, 2010 to May 15, 2010. Selected participants will be informed soon thereafter. Lecturers at the School**:

Perspectives in Nonlinear DynamicsBangalore26 – 29 July, 2010
The PNLD meetings highlight nonlinear science research, and have proved to be a useful forum for the exchange of ideas, for presenting research, and for catalysing research. This meeting will be the third ofthe series: PNLD 2004 was held in Chennai and PNLD 2007 was held in Trieste, Italy. The themes we aim to explore in this program include:
The scientific program will consist of invited and contributed talks, as well as posters, and will be limited to about 100 participants. Contributed talks may be submitted to the conference e-mail account pnld10@gmail.com with the word ABSTRACT in the subject header. This conference is a part of the Nonlinear Sciences Perspectives program of the International Centre of Theoretical Sciences. A workshop on quantum chaos and quantum information, one of the conference themes, is a part of this program and will be held at the Indian Institute of Technology, Madras, 21-25 July, 2010.
Registration: At the web-site. There is no
registration fee.

BeijingStatistical Physics and Computer ScienceInstitute of Theoretical Physics, Chinese Academy of Sciences, Zhong-Guan-Cun East Road 55, 100190 Beijing8 – 11 July, 2010
The theme of this workshop will be statistical physics and its interactions with computer science, information theory, and other interdisciplinary fields. Three days of the workshop will be invited and contributed talks, informal discussions, and a round-table discussion; a guided tour will also be organized. HanoiFrustrated Spin Systems, Cold Atoms, NanomaterialsHanoi14 – 16 July, 2010
The aim of this conference is to gather researchers working on the following subjects which have been extensively developed in the last 20 years: frustrated spin systems, nanomaterials and ultracold atoms. These subjects have been chosen for this STATPHYS24 satellite conference because statistical physics has provided methods for their theoretical development and concepts for interpretation and explanation of experimental results. Also, they have been chosen because of their numerous applications which affect deeply our way of life since 20 years. Hanoi is a beautiful city with easy flight connections to other cities of the region. It is chosen also because of its fast development of research activities in general, and in statistical physics in particular. The organization of this conference in Hanoi would facilitate young researchers to establish personal contacts with their colleagues in other countries. Topics:

SeoulNew Frontiers in Complex NetworksDepartment of Physics and Astronomy, Seoul National University, Seoul12 – 16 July, 2010
Since the small-world network and the scale-free network had been
introduced in 1998 and 1999, respectively, a large number of papers have
been published during the last ten years. The complex network is
attractive not only as the pattern discovered ubiquitously in real
world, but also as the unifying framework to understand inherent
complexity in nature. The conference will look behind what the network
community has achieved during the last ten years and discuss together
what we can do in the future. The topics of interests will cover
fundamental concepts and mathematical features of complex networks as
well as their applications in a variety of disciplines including
physics, biology, information science, sociology, and economics.
and more.
