Mainz-Kobe joint workshop

Mainz-Kobe joint workshop on "Solving the Full Configuration Interaction Problem"

Date: November 26 - 27
Place: RIKEN center for computational science (R-CCS)
http://www.r-ccs.riken.jp/en/map

The workshop is intended to bring together scientists who are actively working on the full configuration interaction problem, to foster an exchange of the different ideas, and to initiate collaborations. Every participant is expected to deliver a presentation and there will be ample time for discussions.

Confirmed speakers:
Ali Alavi (MPI for Solid State Research & University of Cambridge)
Nick Blunt (University of Cambridge)
Janus Juul Eriksen (University of Mainz)
Francesco A. Evangerista (Emory University)
Jürgen Gauss (University Mainz)
Piotr Piecuch (Michigan State University)
Andreas Savin (Sorbonne University)
Jeffery B. Schriber (Emory University)
Sandeep Sharma (University of collorado)
Seiichiro L. Ten-no (Kobe University)
Wataru Uemura (R-CCS)
