First circular
Dear Colleague!
Located in beautiful surroundings, Kathmandu is situated in the middle of an actively emergent part of the world.
The “Kathmandu 2012 Workshop on Theoretical Chemistry: Atoms, molecules and solids: models and concepts” will be held at the hotel Radisson in Kathmandu. The arrival has been organized by April 30th, 2012 and departure by May 4th, 2012.
The aim of the workshop is to draw attention to the most interesting subjects of our research field. Presenting the utmost important features in a simple, clear way will be considered more important than its absolute novelty. We would be glad if you could participate to the workshop suggesting a general, transparent, stimulating talk you could give. However, at the present moment, it is not guaranteed that we will be able to find sufficient time slots for everyone, and some sorting might be needed. In such case, we will try to organize a contribution selection as soon as possible. For the moment and in order to help us to gather participants’ lecturing trends, we need your statement to contribute to the meeting with your affiliation, the preliminary title of your contribution with an abstract in free format. We think now that allotting 30 minutes per talk should be sufficient. Please fill out the form below, and send it back by replying to this email.
For the moment, there is no funding available. We presently have the following estimate of the costs: single room + breakfast + lunches + coffee breaks: around 120 Euros/day. Of course, you will have to add the cost of transportation.
A web site page is under construction. Its address will be given at the beginning of September when ready.
Looking forward to the pleasure to be with you in Kathmandu, please receive our best regards,
Jacek Karwowski, Kalidas Sen, Ramon Carbo-Dorca, Andreas Savin

General information
Dear Colleague!
The organization of the Meeting in Kathmandu is in progress. As for today, 46 people declared their willingnes to participate and 40 will present a talk. We expect participants from the universities in Kathmandu as well.
We would like to remind the basic formula of this meeting: the speakers are expected to present their subjects in a broad perspective and stress the unsolved problems and general not-answered questions rather than to drown the listeners by numbers. A contribution should resemble a report of an expert on his view on the limitations rather than on successes of the exsting models. An assumption that the audience is familiar with the foundations of the theory of many-particle systems but knows next to nothing on the subject of a specific talk would be most appropriate.
You can find further information on the workshop on the web page: http://wiki.lct.jussieu.fr/workshop/index.php/Kathmandu_Workshop_2012

Excursions
Dear participant to the Kathmandu workshop,
There will be two excurions: after lunch on the 1st and on the 3rd of May. We selected two UNESCO world heritage sites: Patan and Bodhnath.
has links with information about these sites.
The excursions will start in the hotel and will be guided by English-speaking guides. The participants have to pay for the museum tickets only (probably less than 20 USD).
All participants and accompanying persons (also the ones who do not want to participate in the excursions) should put their name in the pool: http://www.doodle.com/izuxu5emrwtpxitf
