Editorial

Dear AMPERE colleagues,

with this first issue from Konstanz I take the responsibility for the

Bulletin du Groupement AMPERE. You will find that the layout is

basically unchanged and that the information on past and future

conferences still forms an important part of the Bulletin. As a

service to our members we want to supplement information on

forthcoming AMPERE events by short announcements on other

conferences related to the fields of interest of our Society. You

are invited to submit such announcements, like the one on the Zavoisky100

conference on pages 16-17 of this issue, through our e-mail address

[email protected].

AMPERE Society has grown larger since the past issue of the Bulletin. It is a great

pleasure for me to announce that the European Federation of EPR groups, EFEPR

(http://www.weizmann.ac.il/chemphys/sharonm/efepr/), has joined AMPERE as a

new division. AMPERE has thus truly become an umbrella for virtually all magnetic

resonance and rf spectroscopy activities in Europe. As a first manifestation of the

deeper involvement of EPR groups in the AMPERE society the EUROMAR congress

this July in Tarragona (see Bulletin 223) features a satellite meeting of the EPR

groups organized in the COST P15 action “Advanced Paramagnetic Resonance

Methods in Molecular Biophysics” and a tutorial session that addresses the interface

between EPR and NMR.

I am looking forward to seeing many of you at this years EUROMAR congress

Gunnar Jeschke

Dear Colleagues,

On behalf of the Organizing Committee of the AMPERE NMR Summer School 2007

I have a pleasure to invite you to take part in this scientific event, which brings

together NMR specialists and young scientists interested in using NMR techniques.

The international reputation of the NMR School is guaranteed by having the auspices

of the Groupement AMPERE.

This year the school will take place in Bukowina Tatrzańska (near Zakopane, Tatra

Mountains, Poland), from 24th to 30th of June.

The Programme covers Multi Quantum NMR, Multi Dimensional NMR, Diffusion,

Relaxation, NMR imaging and Application of NMR to Soft Materials.

Please encourage your students and co-workers to attend the school.

Further information available on AMPERE NMR SCHOOL web site

16th - 21st  July 2006York, England

Report on the EUROMAR 2006 conference

The successful EUROMAR 2006 conference was held at the University of York in the UKand organised by the Royal Society of Chemistry NMR Discussion Group and under the

auspices of GROUPEMENT AMPERE. This was the first new pan European conference onMagnetic Resonance spectroscopy and attracted 438 delegates. It replaced the British NMRDiscussion Group’s International Meetings, the biannual Congress AMPERE and EENCMeetings. It followed the two transitional meetings in Lille 2004 and Veldhoven 2005 andcatered for all parties interested in magnetic resonance. A EUROMAR Board of Trusteeshas been formed to oversee the new series of conferences and this was the first onearranged with their guidance, (www.euromar.org).

The Programme was organised by the following team of ten scientists and covered the listedset of topics in dedicated plenary lectures and parallel sessions:

Geoffrey Bodenhausen Frontiers

Kevin Brindle ImagingJanez Dolinsek Solid State PhysicsSimon Duckett CatalysisDuncan Farrant Pharmaceutical ApplicationsDaniella Goldfarb Paramagnetic SystemsMalcolm Levitt High Sensitivity Magnetic ResonanceBeat Meier Bio-SolidsDavid Neuhaus Bio-MacromoleculesJeremy Titman  Methods in Solids

The conference lectures commenced on Sunday 16 th July 2006 with the EUROMAR MedalLecture by Sir Peter Mansfield. From Monday 17th  July through to Friday 21st  July, therewere a total of 10 plenary lectures, one for each topic, held in a joint session at the start ofeach morning. In parallel sessions, a further 18 plenary lectures and 54 contributed talkswere presented, several by students, three of whom each received a prize from thepublishers Wiley. In addition 3 prize winning talks were presented on the Tuesday evening.The AMPERE Prize lecture delivered by Professor Maurice Goldman, the Raymond AndrewPrize lecture by Dr Carlos Mattea and the Russell Varian Prize lecture by Professor JohnWaugh. There were 188 high quality posters presented over two of the afternoon sessions, inaddition to many informative exhibitor displays by the MR vendors.

Professor Simon Duckett was the leader of the excellent team of local organisers from theUniversity of York. They successfully arranged and conducted the smooth running of all

conference proceedings. With excellent weather conditions for the week, these were held inthe Central Hall and Exhibition Centre situated around a wildlife sanctuary lake. Togetherwith the Conference Secretariat, lead by Mrs Elaine Wellingham, they organised a wellbalanced social programme, that included hospitality suites by the major vendors duringeach evening of the conference and six excursions to interesting sites in Yorkshire on theWednesday afternoon and evening. The splendid conference dinner was held at the NationalRailway Museum in the centre of York on the Thursday evening, with a welcoming brassband entertaining delegates amongst the classic locomotives.

The 438 scientists who attended the conference came from 37 countries. There were 26companies that assisted both by sponsoring 78 students’ attendance and by arrangingdisplay stands explaining their particular expertise. All together it helped make an engaging,

stimulating and very successful week.

Final Report

The 6th Colloquium on Mobile Magnetic Resonance 

CMMR6 (Specialized Colloque Ampere) September 6 - 8, 2006 in Aachen, Germany

The Colloquium on Mobile Magnetic Resonance (CMMR) is an annual meeting,which originates from workshops and summer schools. However, it is shaping moreand more into an international conference as recognizable from being a “specializedColloque Ampere” (Groupment Ampere) in 2006, which was organized by theResearch Center Jülich (Peter Blümler as chair and Dagmar van Dusschoten)in closecollaboration with ITMC (Bernhard Blümich and Federico Casanova) of RWTH

Aachen-UniversityThe objectives of the CMMR are:–  to communicate progress, developements and applications of mobile Magnetic

Resonance (NMR, EPR and NQR),–  and to promote "hands-on understanding" in the form of educational lectures and

practical sessions on mobile MR equipment.

The final program, additional material and photographs can be found on theconference webpage ( http://www.cmmr.de )

Speakers in the Educational Program wereBernhard Blümich (Aachen, Germany)Peter Blümler (Jülich, Germany)Federico Casanova (Aachen, Germany)Dagmar van Dusschoten (Jülich, Germany)Eberhard Rommel (Würzbug, Germany)

some papers.

The scientific sessions were complemented by a full programme of the

social events including one-day guided excursion in Klaipėda and Nida (at the

Baltic sea). The last day there was devoted to an extremely interesting scientific

discussion “ Quo vadis material science”.

The local organisers (Chairman – Prof. J. Banys, Secretary – Prof. V.

Balevičius) wish to thank the Vilnius University for enabling us to organise the

Colloque AMPERE and AvH-Workshop in Lithuania. The organisers are gratefulfor financial support from the Alexander von Humboldt Foundation and the

Research and Studies Foundation of Lithuania.

The Colloque AMPERE and AvH-Workshop, the organisers believe, was

successful thanks to the high activity of all the participants and the chairmens of

the sessions, the high standard of all lectures and posters and, finally, active

interactions through personal and group discussions.
