***The 2nd Asian-Pacific Radiation Symposium (APRS2006)***

 

On behalf of APRS2006 Organizing Committee, it is our great pleasure to inform you that the 2nd Asian-Pacific Radiation Symposium (APRS) will be held in Kanazawa, Japan from 31 July to 2 August, 2006. The aims of this symposium are to promote scientific researches related to atmospheric radiation in Asia-Pacific region and to encourage young scientists in this region.

 

The 1st Asian-Pacific Radiation Symposium (APRS) was held in 2003 in Xian, In the conference, there was a proposal for continued efforts of regular holding the symposium every four years to encourage and promote radiation studies in the Asian-Pacific regions. This series of symposia has been recognized by the International Radiation Commission (IAMAS/IRC) as a daughter program of International Radiation Symposium (IRS). This is the solicitation of the paper submission for the 2nd APRS thus organized.
