15th Workshop on "Nuclear Astrophysics"
March 22 - 27, 2010
Second Circular
This circular is intended to fill in the workshop participants on
various logistical details concerning the workshop schedule as well as
travel to and accomodation in the Ringberg Castle.
We look forward to seeing all of you in March and hope the workshop
will provide a productive atmosphere in which to discuss current
research in nuclear astrophysics.

IF WE DO NOT RECEIVE YOUR ANSWER BY FEBRUARY
15, WE WILL ASSUME THAT YOU WILL NOT ATTEND THE WORKSHOP.TRAVEL
We would like to encourage as many people as possible to come by car
since the castle is a bit removed from any convenient public
transportation connections.
Information on how to reach the castle from Munich airport or
Munich by car or by train can be found here.
For those people arriving by train, please note that the trains
all depart from platforms 27--36 which are located in the northwest
corner of the Hauptbahnhof in Munich.
All participants are requested to try to arrive in Tegernsee during
the early afternoon of Monday, March 22, 2010. We will try to make
arrangements to meet those participants arriving by train at the
station in Tegernsee and by plane at the airport in Munich to bring
you to the castle.
The departure date should be not later than after breakfast
on Saturday, March 27 (ie. before 9:30 am).
ACCOMMODATIONSince the number of participants may exceed the number of beds
available at the castle, we may have to make hotel reservations. Of
course, all participants may get their meals at the castle.
Most participants will be housed in single or double rooms available
in the castle itself. All meals will be provided daily at the castle
to the participants.
The Ringberg Castle is located at the northern edge of the Bavarian
Alps and a ski resort is very nearby. We therefore plan if snow
conditions permit that one of the afternoons (Wednesday) is free for
skiing, or other outdoor activities.
PROCEEDINGS
We do not plan to publish proceedings of the workshop, but instead
to make the talks available to the participants in PDF format on the
workshop webpage.
