Trinity College, Dublin 2, Ireland.
Dr. David G. Seller, Department of Physics, North Texas State University, Denton, Texas 76203, U.S.A.
5—10 September 1977 International Conference on Lattice Dynamics, Paris, France. This conference will review the current situation in
15—19 August 1977 International Conference on the Physics of Transition Metals, This major conference will be held at the Department of Physics of the University of Toronto, Toronto, Canada. The program will consist of plenary morning sessions of contributed talks. In addition there wifi be panel discussions on several controversial topics. The invited speakers will be determined with the aid of an International Program Committee and the inter-relation between theory and experiment will be stressed. The major subtopics to be emphasized are: (a) Bulk electronic states (b) Surfaces (c) Magnetism (d) Superconductivity

29 August—I September 1977 Third Specialized Coioque Ampere Optical Techniques in Magnetic Resonance Spectroscopy, Trinity College, Dublin. The conference wifi be addressed to physical problems associated with optically excited states in organic! biological molecules, semiconductors and ionic solids. —
Professor B. Henderson, Physical Laboratory,
the field of lattice dynamics. The last general conference on the subject took place in Copenhagen in 1963. Recent years have seen some of the areas of lattice dynamics mature to the point that they should be summarized and brought to the active notice of a larger audience. In addition, a number of exciting new developments have occurred which deserve attention. The Conference will emphasize the unifying aspects and central issues of present-day lattice dynamics and will also highlight the newer topics. While not intended to be exclusive, the following topics will be heavily emphasized: (1) Basic Phonon Properties Microscopy Theory and Models. (2) Non-Linear Lattice Dynamics Weak interactions and Anharmonic Effects; Strong Interactions and Solutions. (3) Lattice Dynamics of Imperfect Crystals Amorphous Solids, Mixed Crystals and Defects. (4) Lattice Instabilities Phase Transitions and Melting. (5) Phonon—electron Interactions Lattice Dynamical Aspects of Charge Density Waves. (6) Lattice Dynamics of Surfaces and Interfaces. (7) Special Materials Low Dimensional Systems and Superionic Conductors. —
