Dear Colleague,

The COSPAR meeting for 2004 will be held in Paris on July 18-24. 

I would like to call your attention to the COSPAR sessions titled 
"E1.6 Sources of Cosmic Rays in the Galaxy". The description of the Event as 
contained in the COSPAR Information Bulletin is: “This event will focus on 
the observational and theoretical evidence from recent work that bears on 
the sources and acceleration of cosmic rays in the galaxy. It will include 
measurements of elemental and isotopic composition, measurements of energy 
spectra, and measurements of electrons and antiparticles. It will also 
include observations of supernova remnants at X-ray and gamma-ray wavelengths 
with specific relevance to Galactic Cosmic Rays in a joint session with E1.4 
(Young Neutron Stars and Supernova Remnants), and it will cover recent 
theoretical models of particle injection, acceleration, and galactic 
propagation.”

We would like to encourage you to submit contributed papers for this 
conference. Important deadlines are:

Deadline for receipt of COSPAR abstracts: 15 February, 2004
Deadline for Financial Support Application: 15 February, 2004.
Early Deadline for Pre-Registration: 15 May, 2004
Late Deadline for Pre-conference Registration: 16 May-10 July, 2004
Deadline for Hotel Registration: 1 July 2004
