Résumé: The interdisciplinary workshop provides the possibility for presenting and exchanging progress in the description of nonequilibrium phenomena in finite systems. Experiments on very short time scales are characterized by transient phenomena like the formation of correlations and quasiparticle excitations far from equilibrium. Conventionally applied theoretical techniques have to be critically reviewed, and new theoretical concepts have to be discussed. The development of reliable methods is of great importance for designing and fabricating today’s nanostructures. The workshop wants to contribute to the understanding of correlations in optical and transport phenomena in small systems by bringing together theorists and experimentalists from different areas. The workshop is supported by DFG, SMWK, ICCMP and FZD.

Résumé: The field of gold science and technology continues to undergo an exciting period of discovery. World Gold Council and the University of Heidelberg are pleased, therefore, to announce their co-organisation of the 5th international conference on gold science, technology and its applications at the University of Heidelberg, Germany between Sunday 26 – Wednesday 29 July 2009.

This conference follows thesuccessful and stimulating conferences held in Cape Town (2001), Vancouver (2003) and Limerick (2006) and the earlier meeting on 'Progress in the Science and Technology of Gold’ which took place in Hanau, Germany in 1996. Many scientists and technologists in academia and industry have praised the excellence of these forums, where they can come together to learn of and discuss the latest advances, with the overall objective of encouraging important new industrial applications for gold.
