US-Mexico Workshop: Conference on Quantum Chaos: Theory and Applications, Cocoyoc, Mexico

这一美国-墨西哥奖将有助于支持将于2001年7月8日至13日在墨西哥科科约克举行的关于量子混沌、其理论和应用的会议。这次会议由德克萨斯大学奥斯汀分校的L.E.Reichl和人民自治大学的G.露娜·阿科斯塔与墨西哥自治大学的T·塞利格曼、J·弗洛雷斯和P·梅洛共同组织，将是2001年7月15-21日在墨西哥坎昆举行的更大的国际统计物理会议STATPHYS-21的卫星会议。由于原子系统和纳米尺度装置中的实验种类越来越多，介观和原子系统的量子动力学中的混沌现象是一个越来越重要的话题。核散射实验和原子光谱、微波辐射驱动的原子系统、非常强的激光脉冲以及由半导体材料制成的电子波导都提供了这些现象的例子。这次会议将使越来越多的美国、墨西哥和拉丁美洲其他国家在这些领域工作的研究人员和学生就这些问题更广泛地交换意见，并发展未来的合作项目。在STATPHYS附近召开会议，吸引了来自世界各地的量子混沌和介观系统领域的专家，将有助于丰富所有与会者的讨论。

0086374ReichlThis U.S.-Mexico award will help to support a meeting on quantum chaos, its theory and applications, to be held in Cocoyoc, Mexico, July 8-13, 2001. Organized by L. E. Reichl of the University of Texas at Austin and G. Luna Acosta of the Benemerita Universidad Autonoma de Puebla with T. Seligman, J. Flores, and P. Mello of the Universidad Autonoma de Mexico (UNAM), the meeting will be a satellite meeting to the larger International Conference on Statistical Physics, STATPHYS-21, to be held in Cancun, Mexico, July 15-21, 2001.The manifestations of chaos in the quantum dynamics of mesoscopic and atomic systems is a topic of growing importance because of the increasing variety of experiments in atomic systems and nanometer scale devices in which it is now being detected. Nuclear scattering experiments and atomic spectra, atomic systems driven by microwave radiation, very intense laser pulses, and electron waveguides made from semiconductor materials furnish examples of these phenomena. This meeting will allow the growing number of researchers and students in the U.S., Mexico, and other countries in Latin America, who work in these areas, to have a broader exchange of views on these issues and develop future collaborative projects. Convening the meeting close to STATPHYS, which attracts experts in the field of quantum chaos and mesoscopic systems from all over the world, will serve to enrich the discussion for all participants.
