Presentation

For those coming from abroad, willing to participate in both events, we suggest to book a flight to Rio with a stop in São Paulo at the Guarulhos Airport (GRU).
Since the workshop will start at 8:00 am of May 21 (Wed) we recommend the participants to arrive at GRU by the morning of May 20.
We will provide Van transportation to the hotel and back to the airport; each ride taking about one and a half-hour by a highway.
The Workshop will finish by the evening of May 23 (Friday). Therefore the participants could fly to Rio by the afternoon on May 24 or by the morning on May 25. There are several daily flight options from São Paulo to Rio.

We invite all of you, who are working with any experimental or theoretical aspects of unconventional superconductivity, to submit an Abstract to this Workshop until March 06, 2003.

Scope and Plan

We intend to emphasize relevant topics related to superconductivity with pairing symmetry different from a conventional s-wave form, from both experimental and theoretical viewpoints.
Mainly, we expect to receive contributions concerned with materials, whose superconducting and normal state properties cannot be understood within the framework of conventional models.

Abstracts

Abstracts must be a Word file (.doc) or a PDF file, written in English, formatted in one page of paper size A4 (210 x 297 mm), using font Times New Roman, size 12. The following blank margins must be observed: top = 30 mm, bottom = 30 mm, left = 25 mm, right = 25 mm.

The Abstract title must be in bold capital letters of size 12. Below that follow the line(s) with author's names, followed by new line(s) of the author's affiliations. Please underline the presenting author's name, leave a single space line between the title and author's lines, and center all these head lines. Leave also one single space line before starting the body of your abstract.

Proceedings

Authors are asked to submit three hard-copy versions of their paper not later than May 21, 2003 (at the Workshop site).

Hotel Reservation

We plan to have all participants lodged in an in-campus hotel ('Casa do Prof. Visitante'). We have already booked rooms for 60 people, distributed in 20 single rooms and 20 double rooms. These numbers are within the hotel availability limit for that period of the year.
Room registration will be made after receiving the pre-registration order together with Abstract submission.

Registration

Early Registration Fee is offered by a lower amount of US$ 150.00, until April 10. After this deadline the Registration Fee will be US$ 200.00.

The Registration Fee covers attendance to all Technical Sessions, Program and Abstracts Booklet, Welcome Reception, Coffee Breaks and one Cultural Activity.
