Directions to APS, information on ground transportation, maps, and more are available on the Visiting the APS page.
The meeting will be held in Bldg. 402, the APS Conference Center.

New Users: Participants who are not already APS users must register with the APS via the APS online form. Argonne National Laboratory is a controlled-access facility. By registering, you begin the administrative steps required to gain approval for you to enter the Argonne site and to do hands-on work at the APS. Special considerations apply to persons who are not U.S. citizens. Please DO NOT come to Argonne until you have received confirmation from the APS User Office that permission has been granted for your visit. If you will participate in the hands-on portion of the workshop, you must also complete training required by the APS; please follow instructions from the APS User Office.
Current users: We will contact you if retraining is required. Remote training is now available; please complete the remote training or schedule and complete training on-site before the course begins.

Lodging

Onsite housing is available at the Argonne Guest House for $60 per night for a single. The Guest House (Bldg. 460) is located less than a block from the APS (400 Area) [see PDF map].
Reservations must be made by September 8. Specify “GSECARS Spectroscopy Workshop” when making your reservation.

A number of other hotels are located relatively close to Argonne; a list can be found by an Internet search. No special rates have been established for these hotels. Transportation will not be provided.

Limited financial support will be available for participants on first-come first-served basis, with priority given to domestic students, postdocs, and young scientists. Requests should be sent to Vitali Prakapenka (prakapenka@cars.uchicago.edu) by May 31, 2009.
