SESAME progressing
The Synchrotron-light for Experimental Science and Applications in the Middle East [SESAME] is a “third-generation” synchrotron light source being constructed in Jordan. SESAME, the Middle East’s first major international research centre, is a cooperative venture by scientists and governments of the region. It is being developed under the auspices of UNESCO.
At the Council meeting of 12-13 November 2012, SESAME Council Members, and scientific and technical staff…
Submissions for the Spanish Royal Society Meeting
From 15-19 July 2013, most of the Spanish community of physicists will gather in Valencia, Spain, to attend the 34th Biannual Meeting of the Spanish Royal Society of Physics and the 23rd Iberian Meeting on Physics Education.
In addition to mini-symposia, plenary sessions and round tables will address some of the hottest issues in physics and technology, including the elusive Higgs boson, quantum computing, or the state of the art in renewable energies.

Summary of EPS ExCom Meeting, October 2012
At the end of October 2012, the European Physical Society’s Executive Committee met at the Ettore Majorana Scientific Centre in Erice, Italy, in parallel with the kick-off under the chairmanship of H. Wenninger. The common location allowed the ExCom to learn about ongoing work and future evolution of the TIG.
The very recent endorsement of the International Year of Light 2015 by UNESCO was, of course, one of the highlights of the agenda of the ExCom meeting…
