International Symposium on the Theory ofAlloy Formation, New Orleans, Louisiana. An International Symposium on the Theory of Alloy Formation will be held in New Orleans in conjunc-
2—5 April 1979 Properties ofLow Dimensional Solids, Honolulu, Hawaii, U.S.A. Recent work on quasi-one-dimensional materials, i.e. organic charge transfer salts, conducting polymers, and metal chain systems will be the subject of this symposium. In a series of invited and contributed talks, this meeting will focus on the physical, chemical, and structural properties of these materials, as opposed to specific organic syntheses or detailed physical theories. This symposium is part of the joint meeting of the Chemical Society of Japan (CSJ) and the American Chemical Society (ACS) and is sponsored by the Physical Chemistry Division (ACS), the CSJ, and the American Crystallographic Association.
tion with the annual meeting of the Metallurgical Society of AIME during February 18—22, 1979. It will consist of invited papers presented over a two day period, followed by sessions of contributed papers. Abstract forms for the contributed papers may be obtained from TMS- AIME, 345 East 47th Street, New York, NY 1017, U.S.A. The Symposium will emphasize alloy and phase stability, the nergy of alloy formation, the relation of alloy formation to pure metal properties, and the physical parameters controlling stability. Participants will include metallurgists, chemists and physicists who are interested in the fundamentals of alloy formation. Abstracts of contributed papers should be sent by September 1, 1978 to: Professor L.A. Girifalco, Chairman of the Organizing Committee, School of Metallurgy and Materials Science, University of Pennsylvania, 119 Towne Building/D3,

29—30 March, 1979 Symposium on the Structure and Properties of Highly ConductingPolymers and Graphite. By emphasizing the chemistry, structure, and electrical properties of such highly conducting materials as polysulfurnitride, (SN)~and its derivatives, the conducting polyacetylenes and the graphite intercalation compounds we hope to bring together a group of people to examine the analogies between these systems. We also solicit contributions on other similar materials. The dates of this meeting have been chosen to immediately precede the ACS meeting in Hawaii, April 1—6, 1979.

The Third Europhysics Topical Conference on Lattice Defects in Ionic Crystals will be held at the University of Kent at Canterbury from the 17th to the 21st of September, 1979. This is the third in a series of conferences whose aim is to bring together workers in various fields of lattice defects in ionic materials. The programme will consist of invited lectures and contributed papers. The conference proceedings will be published in a special issue of Journal de Physique. The topics to be covered at this meeting will include: Structural and Dynamical Aspects of Defects, Colour Centres, Transport Processes, Dislocations, Radiation Damage, Surfaces, Gross Defects, Mixed Crystals and Phase Transitions. A particular emphasis will be placed on the manner in which the various phenomena impinge upon one another. Contributions involving novel or less conventional experimental techniques will be particularly welcome. Information: Dr. J.H. Strange, Chairman of the Organizing Committee, Europhysics Topical Conference, Physics Laboratory, The University, Canterbury, Kent CT2 7NR, England.
