Second International Workshop on the Magnetic Properties of Low Dimensional Systems, San Luis Potosi, Mexico, May 22-26, 1989

该奖项将支持美国参与者参加一个关于低维系统磁性的国际研讨会。该研讨会由加州大学伯克利分校的Leo Falicov教授和墨西哥圣路易斯波托西自治大学的Jose L. Moran-Lopez教授联合举办。两位调查人员曾在1986年就同一主题组织过一次非常成功的讲习班。有限维度的磁性是一个日益重要的课题，这不仅是因为磁性记录在高技术工业中可能产生巨大的经济影响，但也因为更好的表面科学设备和技术使得发现具有磁性的新物质和具有小簇（油墨）、薄膜和微观周期结构的新制造技术成为可能。本次研讨会将聚集为期5天的一组科学家，讨论最先进的技术，相互学习，并探讨未来的研究合作。

This award will support U.S. participants in an international workshop on the magnetic properties of low dimensional systems. The workshop is jointly organized by Professor Leo Falicov of the University of California, Berkeley and Professor Jose L. Moran-Lopez of the Autonomous University of San Luis Potosi, Mexico. Both investigators had previously organized a very successful workshop on the same general topic in 1986. The subject of magnetism in restricted dimensionality is one of increasing importance, not only because of the possible enormous economic impact that magnetic recording is having in high technology industries, but also because better equipment and techniques for surface science make possible the discovery of new substances with magnetic properties and new manufacturing techniques with small clusters (inks), thin films, and microscopic periodic structures. This workshop will serve to assemble for 5 days a group of scientists to discuss the state-of-the-art, learn from one another, and explore future research collaborations.
