Call for International Molecule-type Workshops
August 2018 version
Yukawa
Institute for Theoretical Physics (YITP), Kyoto University, calls for proposals to organize
international molecule-type workshops under the Yukawa International Program for
Quark-Hadron Sciences (YIPQS).
The international molecule-type workshop
program is intended for intensive discussions and collaborations among
participants for an extended period of time, from two weeks to a few months. Provided that a proposal satisfies the
requirements given below, we are happy to accept any new type of proposal. For
example, the style of a workshop, including whether it is closed or open to the
public, is totally up to the organizers of the workshop. It may be a
brain-storming type of workshop on some new topic, or it may be to carry out
and complete a collaboration, or else. YITP hopes that through these workshops
the participants will feel at home, have valuable discussions, and may be able
to contribute to further progress in theoretical physics.
1. Requirements
·
The length of a workshop
must be two weeks or more, where a week means five working days
(which may include public holidays that do not fall on the weekends). A
workshop may be divided into two separate weeks if necessary.
·
The workshop participants must
include two or more core participants. Core participants are discussion leaders
and workshop organizers. A faculty member
(Academic Staff)* of YITP should be included among
the organizers as a core participant or a contact person.
* A member listed in "Academic Staff" at YITP homepage
https://www.yukawa.kyoto-u.ac.jp/en-GB/contents/people/people
·
At least one of the core
participants has to have a principal affiliation outside of Japan and stay at YITP for two weeks or
more.
2.
Budget
· Upper limit of the
budget for each
workshop is 2,000,000 yen.
3. Deadline
YITP calls for the Molecule-type workshops several times a year. Exact deadline for each call will be announced on the YIPQS homepage. Application must be submitted 3 months before the starting date of the workshop at latest.
4. Application
Submit the following items via E-mail to
<yitp_apply_AT_yukawa.kyoto-u.ac.jp>
(Replace _AT_ with @).
·
International
molecule-type workshop proposal application form.
·
In case the length of a workshop exceeds a month, an explanation for
a longer workshop must be given in the application form. A research plan (with a rough schedule, with the length of 80
words or more) for each participant who stays
more than a month should be included.
·
In case the budget request exceeds
1,000,000 yen, an explanation for a larger budget must be given in the application form.
·
PDF copy of a related paper (if
any).
The application form can be downloaded from the YIPQS homepage
http://www2.yukawa.kyoto-u.ac.jp/~yipqs.project/call_e.html
As soon as your application has
been received, an acknowledgement is sent to you from
the secretary office.
5. Screening and approval
Applications are screened by the YIPQS executive committee and the YITP program advisory committee. The
result will be informed via E-mail.
6. Workshop preparation
If approved, the organizers should submit a list of participants.
· a list of participants from abroad who are to be supported, with their arrival and departure dates and other relevant schedules during their stay 6 weeks at latest prior to
the workshop.
·
a list of domestic participants who are to be supported, 3 weeks at latest prior to the workshop.
7.
Workshop
report
The organizers must submit a report
within a month after the
end of the workshop. A workshop
report should
include a list of participants, activity during the workshop, and
the achievements
(approximately
2 pages in A4 paper).
