WIEN2k is one of the most popular electronic structure codes used to perform calculations with the Full Potential LAPW method. The workshop is a unique opportunity to learn the use, power and limitations of the package with the tutoring of the authors and developers of the code. The activities will be aimed at graduate students and researchers from industry and academia. The only pre-requisite is to have a basic knowledge of solid state physics, and chemistry. It is planned as a four-day activity with lectures on the scientific aspects of the method, applications, hand-on activities on selected examples, and the opportunity to receive a head start on a personal project. The invited speakers and tutors includes: -Peter Blaha (TU Wien, Austria) -Robert Laskowski (Aarhus, Denmark) -Joachim Luitz (TU Wien, Austria) -Georg Madsen (Aarhus, Denmark) -Karlheinz Schwarz (TU Wien, Austria) -Jorge Sofo (Penn State Univ., USA) -Kazuyoshi Tatsumi (Nagoya Univ., Japan) -Tomoyuki Yamamoto (Kyoto Univ., Japan) Chair: Karlheinz Schwarz (TU Wien, Austria) Isao Tanaka (Kyoto University, Japan) Peter Blaha (TU Wien, Austria) For more information see http://cms.mtl.kyoto-u.ac.jp/wien2k-ws.htm P.Blaha -------------------------------------------------------------------------- Peter BLAHA, Inst.f.
