Preliminary Announcement
 4th International School on Excited States of Transitions Elements
6-12 September 1997
Wroclaw-Duszniki Zdroj
organized by 

Institute for Low Temperature and Structure Research, 
Polish Academy of Sciences, Wroclaw
Department of Chemistry, Wroclaw University
Institute of Physics, Technical University of Wroclaw

	The fourth International School is a continuation of the series of 
highly succesful triennial meetings (Ksiaz Castle-1988, Karpacz-1991, 
Kudowa Zdroj 1994) held in Poland under the auspices of the Polish
Academy of Sciences and the State Committee for Scientific Research of 
Poland.

General Information
The school aims to provide by pleanary lectures a broad overview of 
the current state of the art in the theory and practical applications 
of optical phenomena in the rare earth and transition metal elements. 
Contributed lectures will emphasize the most recent developments. There 
will be poster sessions directed towards problems still in the course of
 solution. The following areas will be emphasized:
    nanometric structures
    activated fibers
    nonlinear phenomena in crystals
    active sol-gel glasses
    vibronic interactions
    luminescent sensors
    new laser materials

Scientific Programme
The scientific programme of the School will consist of the invited plenary 
and contributed lectures, oral presentations and poster sessions.
 
Language
Lectures will be presented in English. No translation service will be provided.
