Hotels: Participants are asked to make their own hotel arrangements. We have arranged special conditions with a number of places, please check the hotel list. Please observe the tight deadlines of the hotels, in particular the less expensive places. Early June is one of the most crowded times in tourist Dresden, so don't wait!

Main Sponsor: The conference will be sponsored by the Max-Planck-Institut für Physik komplexer Systeme, Dresden, both financially and logistically. The WILHELM UND ELSE HERAEUS-FÖRDERPROGRAMM of the German Physical Society has agreed to provide travel stipends.

Registration and Fees: Advance registration is now closed. Please register upon arrival. The following participation fees will cover access to the scientific sessions, the book of abstracts, lunch at four days, coffee breaks, and two evening buffets.

Financial Suport: There are two ways to obtain financial support for attending the conference. For both, the deadline for application is February 28, 2001.

1. Support by the WILHELM UND ELSE HERAEUS-FÖRDERPROGRAMM: The WILHELM UND ELSE HERAEUS-FÖRDERPROGRAMM of the German Physical Society will generously provide financial support for up to 20 conference participants (diploma students, PhD students, postdocs). According to the regulations of the WILHELM UND ELSE HERAEUS stipends they will cover, at least partly, costs for accommodation, travel expenses, and conference fee. General reqirement for an application is an active contribution to the conference (talk or poster) and the membership of the German Physical Society.

   Applicants for such a WILHELM UND ELSE HERAEUS stipend are asked to fill the application form (used also for participation in the annual DPG spring meetings) which can be found in the September issue of Physikalische Blätter, 2000, Nr. 9, page 85) and to send the application form BY REGULAR MAIL to

   Visitors Program
   - Dynamics Days Europe 2001 -
   Max-Planck-Institut für Physik komplexer Systeme
   Nöthnitzer Str. 38
   D-01187 Dresden

   Please, do NOT send the application directly to the DPG. This application does not replace the regular (electronic) registration for the conference which has to be done additionally. The organizing committee will decide upon the applications. Early applications will be considered preferentially and notification will be given as soon as possible.

2. Support for housing by MPI-PKS: The MAX-PLANCK-INSTITUT FÜR PHYSIK KOMPLEXER SYSTEME will provide housing for a limited number of participants who contribute with a talk or poster to the conference and who cannot obtain financial support for housing from other sources. Please indicate your application for housing in the electronic registration form and give a brief justification. Early applications will be considered preferentially and notification will be given as soon as possible.
