Invitation to Sponsors and Exhibitors

We are pleased to announce that the International Conference on Strongly Correlated Electron Systems (SCES2010) will be held in Santa Fe, NM from June 27 through July 2, 2010. This is a major international conference, typically attracting 500 or more participants, that is returning to the United States for the first time since SCES2007 in Houston. SCES2010 will be held in the new Santa Fe Convention Center, an attractive venue in a very popular city.

The technical scope of the conference is broad, spanning quantum phase transitions, heavy fermion materials and phenomena, quantum magnetism and frustrated magnets, unconventional superconductivity, organic conductors and magnets, non-Fermi liquids and exotic quantum phases, Kondo impurity and Kondo lattice systems, physics of Mott-Hubbard systems, coupled spin, charge, and orbital degrees of freedom, physics of transuranics, correlated electrons in nanostructures, quantum Hall liquids and correlation effects in ultra-cold trapped atoms as well as mathematical models and computational studies of correlated electron phenomena.

Los Alamos National Laboratory is providing significant financial support for this meeting and is partnering with the New Mexico Consortium, an educational organization comprised of New Mexico’s research universities, to sponsor the meeting. However, additional sponsors and donors are needed, and we need your help. There are two ways in which you could help.  If you would like to promote your organization and/or products to this community, opportunities exist to help defray the costs of conference organization, breaks/meals, and promotion. As a benefactor, your contributions would be included prominently in conference printed matter, the conference website, and/or ample display space exists for booths, etc. In addition and most importantly, we are committed to defraying the cost of attending this meeting for students and under-represented groups. Opportunities exist to provide travel grants and related support to such individuals, again with appropriate acknowledgment of your generous support.

Your willingness to serve as a conference sponsor or donor will be most appreciated. We will be delighted to talk to you about the possibilities that exist and ensure that your generosity is recognized appropriately. Please do not hesitate to contact either one of us at:

sarrao@lanl.gov or jdt@lanl.gov .

Sincerely,

SCES2010 Co-Chairs
