****************กใ PANIC02 (New deadline is May 14) กไ**************** Dear Colleagues; The XVI Particles and Nuclei International Conference (PANIC02) will be held in Osaka, Japan, from September 30 to October 4, 2002. We have received many abstracts of your contributed papers to PANIC02. We sent a confirmation to those who submitted their abstracts which we verified printable. Thank you very much for your coorporation. We were, however, informed that some fraction of people did not have enough time to prepare their abstract. We thus postpone the deadline of the abstract submission to May 14. We also encourage you to submit an abstract of your works for which you were unable to meet the old deadline (April 29). Please visit our web site for details. http://www.rcnp.osaka-u.ac.jp/~panic02/ You can find current list of invited speakers and other information. Sincerely yours. Hiroshi Toki Kenichi Imai Co-Chairpersons of PANIC02 Tadafumi Kishimoto Scientific Secretary
