1. General Information

 
The Centre for the Subatomic Structure of Matter (CSSM) at the University of Adelaide will host the 3^rd International Symposium on Symmetries in Subatomic Physics. The conference will be held Monday through (and including) Friday, 13-17 March, 2000, with a break on Wednesday afternoon for a conference excursion. The CSSM will provide administrative support.

The Conference will be held at the Adelaide Hilton Hotel, Victoria Square, Adelaide. The Conference secretariat and computer facilities for delegates will also be housed at the Hilton Hotel.

• Report from SNO (J. Wilkerson)
• First results from BaBar (B. K. Abbott)
• First results from Belle (H.Ozaki)
• Latest Results from Super-Kamiokande (T. Kajita)
• Neutrino Oscillation Results from CERN (K. Varvell)
• Charge Symmetry Violation in np -> dp⁰ (A. Opper)
• Test of Time Reversal Invariance in K_\mu3 decays (Y. Kuno)
• T-Violation and CPT-Tests at CPLEAR (L.Schaller)
• Symmetries in Deep Inelastic Scattering (J.T. Londergan)
• Rare Kaon Decays (D. Bryman)
• Parity Violation in Atomic Systems (V. Flambaum)
• Neutron Decay: Lifetime and Standard Model Tests (M. Snow)
• Parity Violation in pp Elastic Scattering (S. Page)

• Is time reversal invariance violated in muon decay? A measurement of the transverse positron polarization (W. Fetscher)



 

5. Contributed Papers

There will be a number of parallel sessions and poster sessions. We will accommodate as many requests for oral presentations as possible. Contributed papers are welcomed. They should be submitted as postscript files, preferably encoded using the uufiles utility, which can be obtained from the Los Alamos archive or the conference home page. The length should be a one or two A4 pages. The name of the author who will present the contribution should be underlined. Deadline for receipt: 30th November, 1999. Submission by airmail is also acceptable, but the contribution must reach Adelaide by 30^th November, 1999. All registered contributors will be notified of whether the paper has been accepted for oral or poster presentation by 8^th February, 2000. (Note that the date has been moved back to allow for a few late contributions. We expect that all requests for an oral presentation will be able to be accomodated. Please e-mail us at once if you need urgent confirmation.)

Please send all contributions to symm2000@physics.adelaide.edu.au.
