EWinS 2016 - EUSpec Winter School on core level spectroscopies
--------------------------------------------------------------

Date:    1 – 11 February 2016.
Venue:    Ajdovščina, Slovenia

The COST action EUSpec (http://www.euspec.eu/) is proud to announce its
first two-week winter school on core level spectroscopies to be held at the
Applied Physics Faculty of the University of Nova Gorica.


SCHOOL MOTIVATION

The aim of the school is to introduce theoreticians as well as
experimentalists to foundations of modern approaches for studying core
level spectroscopies from first-principles modeling to the most advanced
experimental spectroscopy techniques. The school will bring together
experts and early career investigators working on advanced materials
science, with a common interest in high level and up-to-date sophisticated
spectroscopy experiments and modeling tools. The school will be an
extraordinary opportunity for students and young researchers to be
introduced to core level spectroscopies and to discuss with worldwide
recognized scientists in a friendly environment.

Regular lectures and talks will be followed by hands-on courses on the
following three codes: ORCA (quantum chemistry), WIEN2k (full-potential
all-electron), and Quantum ESPRESSO (pseudo-potential).
