The 8th Joint Magnetism and Magnetic Materials (MMM)-Intermag Conference will be held at the Marriott Rivercenter in San Antonio, Texas, from Monday, January 8, through Thursday, January 11, 2001. Members of the international scientific and engineering communities interested in recent developments in magnetism and associated technologies are invited to attend the Conference and contribute to its technical sessions. This Conference will include all basic and applied science and technology related to the field of magnetism. The technical subject categories for the Conference are located below. Because of the need to convey information effectively with colleagues as well as a continued increase in the number of submitted abstracts in recent years, authors should make an effort to present their work in the best possible light. Please keep in mind the following abstract acceptance criteria used by the Program Committee:
The abstracts must be submitted prior to the July 19, 2000 deadline. This deadline will be strictly observed. Please submit an abstract Ovide support NLY if you expect to register at the Conference WITHOUT financial support from the Conference. The Conference does NOT profor any contributed papers. In addition, the presenting author MUST be a registrant The program will consist of invited and contributed papers falling broadly within the scope of the categories listed on the back page. Some of the invited papers will be tutorial in nature, while others will review recent work in specialized fields. The Program Committee is chaired by R. Victora and D. Weller. The Program Committee consists of the following members: D. Awschalom, W. Butler, J. Borchers, Z. Celinski, W-Y. Ching, J. Daughton, S. Dey, W. Doyle, W. Egelhoff, Jr., L. Folks, D. Fowler, R. Gomez, B. Gurney, G. Hadjipanayis, V. Harris, F. Hellman, G. Hughes, J. Katine, C. Krafft, D. Lavers, M. Lederman, L. H. Lewis, J. MacLaren, M. Mallary, M. McHenry, M. Mirzamaani, K. OıGrady, R.

Submit all abstracts for the 8th Joint MMM-Intermag
Conference electronically using the MMM web submission Please read and/or print the abstract submission procedures for reference while you are submitting your abstract. The password enabling you to begin the submission process is: magnet00. If you have questions about this procedure, please contact the AIP Coordinator at the e-mail address: magnet@aip.org
The Proceedings of the Conference will be published in June 2001, as special issues of Journal of Applied Physics and IEEE Transactions on Magnetics. Entire sessions will be assigned to one or the other of these publications by the Program Committee. Detailed instructions on the preparation of manuscripts for submission will be sent to authors whose papers are accepted for presentation at the Conference. The maximum paper length is six journal pages for invited papers and three journal pages for contributed papers. All manuscripts must be received by October 13, 2000. This deadline will be strictly observed. Post-deadline manuscripts will be returned to the authors and not forwarded for review. Authors are reminded that review standards will mirror those used for regular articles submitted to Journal of Applied Physics and IEEE Transactions on Magnetics, and that, because of time constraints, a second review may not be possible for resubmitted papers that were originally rejected. Papers must be presented at the Conference by an author registered at the Conference in order to be published in the Proceedings. The Marriott Rivercenter is located in the cultural and historical center of downtown San Antonio, Texas. The Marriott Rivercenter is in close proximity to the sightseeing attractions such as the Tower of the Americas, Institutes of Texan Culture, Southwest Craft Center, The Texas Adventure and the Mexican Cultural Institute. You wonıt want to miss out on visiting the famous San Antonio River Walk where you can enjoy great entertainment and excellent restaurants. Hotel rates:

The winner of the Best Student Presentation Award for MMM=99 is: William H Rippard for the presentation ³Ballistic electron magnetic microscopy: Imaging magnetic structure with nanometer resolution.² Congratulations! The Conference intends to award grants of approximately $500 each to a limited number of students working in magnetism and magnetic materials. These awards are intended to partially offset travel costs to attend the 8th Joint MMM-Intermag Conference, January 2001. Preference will be given to students who are nearing completion of their graduate studies and presenting Conference papers. No support will be granted to postdoctoral fellows or non-students. To apply for a travel grant, a student should submit, preferably by e-mail, a brief letter of endorsement from his or her faculty advisor and an application containing the following information: (1) name, address, phone, FAX and e-mail address of the student and his/her advisor, (2) title and 1-2 sentence description of the thesis work, (3) thesis start date, expected graduation date and name of degree (e.g., Ph.D. or M.S.), (4) whether or not the student will present a paper that has been accepted by the conference and, if so, the title, paper number and authors of that paper, (5) itemized budget for attending the Conference (airline travel, boarding and lodging should use the most economical fares possible), (6) expected dollar amount that the studentıs current financial support will provide for travel to the Conference, and (7) whether or not the student has received a travel award for a previous MMM or Intermag Conference and, if yes, then the year and name of the Conference. The application should be sent to:sheryl_a_foss-schroeder@notes.seagate.com. Applications received after the deadline date of October 13, 2000 will NOT be considered. Decisions will be mailed by November 30, 2000. 46th Conference on Magnetism and Magnetic Materials November 12 16, 2001, Seattle, Washington; Intermag Conference April 29 May 3, 2002 Amsterdam, The Netherlands; 47th Conference on Magnetism and Magnetic Materials November 11 15, 2002, Tampa, Florida; Intermag Conference March 30 April 3, 2003, Boston, Massachusetts; 9th Joint MMM-Intermag Conference January 5 9, 2004, Anaheim, California.

Use password: magnet00 This year, there will be a competition for the best student presentation at the 8th Joint MMM-Intermag Conference to recognize and to encourage excellence in graduate studies in the field of magnetism. Eligibility: The nominee must be a full time graduate student expecting to graduate within one year of the 8th Joint Meeting. The student's area of research may either be theoretical or experimental in any of the general technical and scientific areas normally presented as part of the 8th Joint Meeting. The student's regularly submitted abstract must have been accepted for presentation through the normal abstract review process by the 8th Joint Program Committee as either an oral or poster presentation. Nature of Award: This award consists of a one-year fellowship of $1000 for the winner and a one-year fellowship of $250 to each of the remaining finalists. The names of all finalists competing for the award will be announced in the 8 th Joint Meeting Abstract and Program Booklets. The name of the winner will be published in the Program Booklet of the following MMM (46 th ) Meeting. Selection Process: Up to 8 finalists will be selected by a Student Award sub-committee of the 8th Joint Program Committee. Selections will be made from extended-abstract applications, as described below, based on an overall assessment of the quality of each applicantıs extended and regularly submitted abstracts. Notification to the finalists will be made with the 8th Joint abstract acceptance notifications. The presentations, which must be made by the finalist, will be evaluated at the conference by the Student Award sub-committee and the winner will be announced shortly after the conclusion of the 8th Joint Meeting. The decision of the Student Award sub-committee is final.
