Almagro, Spain, Feb. 9-12, 2005
This conference aims to bridge the areas of nonlinear waves and BEC. Specifically, to bring together experts on BEC with experts on soliton theory and nonlinear waves, many of which have already contributed to the field of BEC. Thus, we would like to stimulate the interaction between three different communities: BEC experimentalists, BEC theoreticians and experts on nonlinear waves (usually mathematical physicists and mathematicians). The main goals of the conference are to stimulate mutual knowledge, to identify and address new problems and to find new frameworks for cooperation at the European level and beyond.
The conference themes are all those related to solitons and nonlinear waves in BEC including: solitons, dynamical phenomena in single and multicomponent BECs, shock waves, dynamical aspects of Bose-Fermi mixtures, topological excitations, vortices, control of the dynamics of BECs, Feshchbach resonance management and nonlinear dynamics in BECs, quantum and classical chaos with BECs, numerical and mathematical methods in the theory of BEC and related subjects.

Participants are expected to arrive on Feb, 8. Conference lectures will start early in the morning on Feb 9. Sessions will extend until lunch time of Feb. 12.
The conference will be held in the "Palace of Valparaiso" of Almagro (Ciudad Real, Spain). Almagro is a small historic village (8.000 inhabitans) which keeps its splendor from the spanish XVI century. The Palace hosts many conferences during the year and provides a very nice framework for scientific cooperation. For more information on the palace or the city follow the links above.
The conference fee for normal participants is 500 € which must be paid by bank transfer prior to the conference. The registration fee includes lodging near the conference Palace, lunches and the conference materials. Registration fee for acompanying persons is 300 € including lodging in the same room as the registered participants, lunches and the conference dinner. Those acompanying persons only interested in lodging should pay directly to the hotel the difference in the prices (which should be small).

Registered participants can apply for contributed talks to present their research results. Interested participants should send an email to the chairman (victor.perezgarcia@uclm.es) together with a short abstract of their intended contribution before September 30 (in case the contribution is based on a paper already published or a preprint available on arxiv the author should provide a copy by email together with the abstract). Once the abstract is received the scientific commitee will evaluate it and notify acceptace as contributed talk or poster in a period of about two weeks.
