The three week school will approximately be of 94 hours duration (including Lectures, tutorials, Computational lab hours and evening lectures).

Who should attend? This course is directed to employees of small and medium sized companies, intending to im-prove their products by the application of nanomaterials or are determined to develop new ones based on nanomaterials. The second group to attend the course are new co-workers of companies, universities or research institutes who want to shorten the time to get the neces-sary knowledge on nanomaterials or those who want to broaden their knowledge in this group of materials.

GSI, the German research center for heavy-ion physics, is one of the world's leading accelerator laboratories for basic research with accelerated ions. In cooperation with an international research community the existing accelerator complex will be significantly extended by a new Facility for Antiproton and Ion Research (FAIR). The center provides unique research opportunities for investigations in the fields of hadronic and nuclear physics, nuclear astrophysics, atomic, laser, and plasma physics, materials science, and biophysics with applications to cancer therapy, new accelerator developments and radiation safety.
