Dynamics Days Europe is a major international conference with a long
tradition aimed at covering the entire field of dynamics and
nonlinearity. The XXIInd event in this tradition will take place in

    Heidelberg,  July 15-19, 2002

at the communication center of the German Cancer Research Center
on the campus of the University of Heidelberg.


SCOPE: 

The focus of the conference will be on new developments in modelling,
mathematical foundations, applications and experiments. The invited
sessions cover

    Computational Physics               Patterns and Waves
    Dynamical Systems                   Nonlinear Quantum Effects
    Engineering and Optimization        Statistical Physics

DEADLINES:

    deadline for abstracts           March 31, 2002                    
    notification of acceptance       May 1, 2002                       
    deadline for registration        May 15, 2002                      
    reservation of accommodation     recommended in the course of April

Participants are invited to contribute their recent results in all
areas of nonlinear dynamics. A limited number of contributions will be
selected for oral presentation. Contributed talks will be scheduled in
sessions with two talks at a time. Posters are on display during the
whole conference, in addition to special poster sessions. Reviving an
old tradition of Dynamics Days there will be awards for the best
poster presentations.


FINANCIAL SUPPORT: 

There will be limited funds to support scientists from less-favoured
regions in Europe and young researchers. German students, who are
members of the German Physical Society, are eligible for support by
the Heraeus foundation.

Please use the remark field of the electronic abstract submission form
to apply for reduced fees, and grants for travel and local
expenses. The applications will be reviewed together with the
contributions to the conference, such that promises for financial
support can be sent out in late April and beginning of May together
with the notification of the acceptance of contributed talks and
posters.
