Dear Colleagues, The American Chemical Society division of Polymeric Materials: Science and Engineering (PMSE) is sponsoring a symposium on "Scattering from Polymers" at the national meeting in Boston, August 23 - 27, 1998 . We are co-organizing this symposium. As you are an active member in the scattering field, we encourage you to contribute a talk or a poster in this symposium. Scattering continues to be an essential part of polymer science, with its impact on both scientific and technological issues of the field increasing. This symposium thus will cover a broad spectrum of advanced scattering work from polymers, with emphases on block copolymers, crystalline polymers, complex fluids, multicomponent systems, polymer surfaces, and applications of scattering to processing. We expect that there will be a good mix of contributions from people using the various types of scattering techniques (neutron, x-ray , LIGHT, and x-ray). The invited speakers include: Drs. S. H. Chen (MIT), O. Glatter (U. Graz), T. Hashimoto (Kyoto U.), J. Higgins (Imperial College), A. Nakatani (NIST), A. Ryan (UMIST), M. Stamm (MPI), G. Strobl (Albert-Ludwigs U.). We intend to publish the presented work in this symposium in a book. All participants will be asked to contribute a manuscript towards this book, in addition to submit a preprint for the meeting proceedings. The due date for the symposium preprint and the abstract is March 15, 1998. In making your submission, please send originals of both the preprint and the abstract, as well as four copies of the abstract and two of the preprint, on 8 1/2" x 11" or similar sized paper. The forms should be sent to Peggy Cebe. If you need the ACS preprint and abstract forms, please contact us ASAP. Information about this symposium can be found on the web page (http://pmse.phy.tufts.edu). Information on registration for the meeting and hotel accommodations will be coming out in Chemical & Engineering News and the ACS web page (http://www.acs/meetings/boston/welcome .htm) in June. Summer in Boston is very pleasant. We look forward to your participation in this symposium. Sincerely yours, Peggy Cebe Tufts University Dept.
