Dear Prof. Blaha,

Thank you for reaching out to those who were not selected for the workshop.
Please is it possible to consider online participation for the lecture
sessions? It will be very beneficial and possibly make for wider
participation.

May I wish you very fruitful workshop.

Best regards.

Dear Peter

Thanks for the reminder. I submitted an application and asked for the grant 
which was denied. But I would like to attend the workshop anyways. When will we 
receive the notification of acceptance. In case I am accepted I need to make 
arrangements here in advanced and ask for funding. I appreciate your feedback.

Subject: [Wien] wien2k workshop

Dear wien2k users,

This is just a reminder that the general deadline for the 27th WIEN2k
workshop ends
  5. February 2024.

The workshop will be held at

ICTP (Trieste, Italy)   from 08 April to 19 April 2024.

As far as I know, the grants to support the attendance of selected
participants have been distributed, but I will emphasize that still all
participants from developing countries will receive a free (!) WIEN2k
license.

The participation format will be “in-person” only. The program will have
a balance of lectures with illustrative examples and hands-on sessions.
We plan to cover a range of topics from basic functionality to advanced
developments: density functional theory, band structure, magnetism,
relativistic effects, phonons, charge transport, spectroscopy (optics,
XANES, EELS, XPS), NMR, Mössbauer, Wannier functions, Berry phase,
mapping Berry curvature, topological materials, surfaces.
There will be a possibility to show your research by presenting a poster.

We anticipate hosting about 50 participants. In order to make the
workshop easy accessible we have eliminated the registration fee for all
participants.

Registration applications will be accepted ONLY through the ICTP portal:

 https://indico.ictp.it/event/10467

We are looking forward to welcome you in Trieste.
Your organizing committee (Peter Blaha, Oleg Rubel, and Nicola Seriani)

Peter Blaha

Dear wien2k users,

Since I already got several requests, let me announce the date and 
location of our wien2k workshop in 2018.


   25th WIEN2k-workshop
   Boston College, Boston, US, 12-16.June 2018

 (More info later in the mailing list and at www.wien2k.at)

It is  a great opportunity for beginners to get familiar with a
powerful but complex package like WIEN2k.

Best regards

please would you organize the Wien2k worshop also in this year 2018 ? If 
yes, will it be held in September (2018)  ?

Re: [Wien] WIEN2k workshop

2015-03-25 Thread Peter Blaha 

Dear wien2k users,

Before we receive a further flood of requests of waiving the registration fee on
this mailing list:

a) I'm NOT the local organizer and we have nothing to do with the financial
   organization of this workshop. So it does not make sense to ask me for 
support.
b) The local organizer is Dr. Ong, as indicated in the workshop web-page, but
   I very much doubt that the local organizers have money to support free 
participation
   (or even travel and accommodation support).
c) Even when there would be some money, the question would be: whom should we 
support ?
   Mr AAA or BBB ??? I understand the difficult situation in some countries, 
but I
   don't think that the Singapore organizers can support all people from these 
countries.

We have urged the local organizers to make the fee as cheap as possible, and 
this
fee includes also coffee and lunches, so these are real costs for the 
organizers
which they need to get back with the registration fee.

Dear Prof. Peter Blaha and colleagues,

 We herewith confirm that we are not able to offer financial support / 
accommodation to participants who are going to attend WIEN2K workshop. 

 The workshop fee is really cheap including 2 tea breaks + lunch per day + 
other costs. The workshop itself is non-profit.   

 For the accommodation, there are many hotels offering really cheap price 
~30-50 SGD ~22 -37 USD.
