::  PROCEEDINGS

 
The proceedings will be published as a book in the "Astrophysics and Space Science Library Series" under the joint collaboration of Kluwer Academic Publishers and Springer Publishers. Please follow the instructions below to prepare and submit your contribution.

 

Deadlines

The deadline for all proceedings contribution (invited articles and poster contributions) is Feb 1st, 2005

 

What should be the length of the article? (Oral Presentations)

The nature of the "Library Series" requires that the articles are written more like a class room lecture rather than a research article. So please take the liberty of adding extra explanations where necessary while writing your contribution. The length of individual articles should be more than 6 pages (note that these are smaller than regular journal pages). The upper limit on the length of the articles are 10 pages for speakers who delivered 30 minute duration talks and 14 pages for those speakers who delivered 45 minute duration talks.

 

What about the poster contributions?

If you had contributed a poster and if the poster material is not expected to appear in a refereed journal publication as of May 2005, please submit a contribution with length of pages less than 6 pages and these contributions will go as a CD ROM insert of the proceedings book. Follow the instructions below for style files and submission.

Figures and Reprint Permission Tips.

Please make sure that for all figures the best possible originals are included (highest resolution, more than 300 dpi, preferably 600 dpi). Please try to paste figures into the manuscript. That is the best guarantee that figures will be published in the right size and right orientation. Otherwise, with open space, at least make sure that these materials are properly marked and sized to indicate their location in the manuscript. For images we ask that you send us glossy photographs. For electronic figure files we prefer tiff or eps formats. When figures are used which have been published elsewhere (or e.g. painting reproductions), permission for reprinting from the publishing houses must be obtained. You can use the Request Form provided by Springer for asking reprint permissions. However, we prefer original artwork to avoid copy right problems.
