Fifth International Workshop
on Accelerator Alignment
ANL/FNAL October 13 - 17, 1997
The following list provides access to the sessions and abstracts received for the IWAA97. It outlines the planned events during our workshop on a daily bases. Those authors who had committed to a contribution but not yet submitted an abstract are statused as "not yet received". We will update this list when that information is made available. Updates until September 15, 1997, the cut-off date for registration, will be included. Any additions after the cut-off date can not be accepted.
The organizers of the IWAA97 are greatful for the numerous contributions to the workshop and are looking forward to welcome you soon.
For your presentations we will provide overhead projectors, slide projectors and an LCD display for Power Point computer presentations.
