***********1st Announcement************
The XVI International Conference On Molecular Energy Transfer,
COMET XVI, will be held at "La Cittadella", a conference facility
in Assisi, ITALY, 20-25 June 1999. Assisi is a unique medieval
town rich in art masterpieces. It is located in a beautiful
landscape, 25 km east of Perugia, the capital of the Umbria region
known as the "green heart" of Italy. The COMET is a Gordon type
conference held every two years alternating between the USA and Europe.
The purpose of the 1999 conference is to survey recent advances,
undertake stimulating discussions, generate new ideas, and map out
future directions in the field of molecular energy transfer.
The scientific program will concentrate on dynamical aspects
of molecular energy transfer. Particular emphasis will be given to
* State-to-state dynamics
* Inelastic and reactive collisions
* Unimolecular reactions
* Ion reaction dynamics
* State-selected (inter- and intra-molecular) energy transfer
* Internal vibrational redistribution
* Energy transfer in condensed phase
* Clusters and hydrogen bonded systems
* Photodissociation
* Imaging techniques
* Non-adiabatic processes
* Open-shell dynamics and spectroscopy
* Transition state spectroscopy
* Femtosecond dynamics
