Tisztelt Kollégák!

Az Eötvös-évhez kapcsolódóan az International Conference on 
Precision Physics and Fundamental Physical Constants (FFK) 
sorozat következő konferenciáját Tihanyban, a Balatoni 
Limnológiai Kutatóintézetben szervezzük, 2019 június 10 és 
14 között (közvetlenül a Pünkösd-hétvége után). A 
konferencia fő témája a gravitáció lesz, tekintettel az 
Eötvös-kísérletre és a gravitációs hullámok felfedezésére, 
de helyt adunk természetesen a konferenciasorozat szokásos 
spektroszkópiai és metrológiai előadásainak is. A 
konferencia lapján (http://indico.cern.ch/e/ffk-2019) a 
sorozat korábbi konferenciáinak programja is megtekinthető.

Mellékeljük a konferencia nemzetközi körlevelét.

Üdvözlettel: Horváth Dezső


Dear Colleagues,

We should like to attract your attention to the International Conference on 
Precision Physics and Fundamental Physical Constants (FFK-2019). It will take 
place on 10-14 June 2019 in the spectacular resort town Tihany at the very 
shore of the Hungarian Lake Balaton. For all details: venue, programme, 
registration, organization committee, transportation and accomodation see the 
developing home page http://indico.cern.ch/e/ffk-2019.

The conference will cover a broad variety of topics related to precision 
physics and fundamental constants, which range from particle physics and 
astrophysics to atomic physics and metrology. It follows the line of the 
previous conferences of this series held last in Stara Lesna, St. Petersburg, 
Dubna, Budapest and Warsaw (see our home page for links). The official language 
of the conference will be English.

The conference will serve as a part of the programme of the Hungarian Eötvös 
year, devoted to the rich scientific and cultural heritage of Baron Roland von 
Eötvös at the occasion of the 100th anniversary of his passing. As his most 
famous result was an extremely precise measurement of Earth's gravitational 
effects using his famous Eötvös pendulum, FFK-2019 will have special sessions 
devoted to gravity measurements including gravitational waves.

The registration to FFK-2019 is now open. Please come to Tihany, June is 
already high holiday season at the Lake Balaton. As Tihany is a famous resort 
place, it has several hotels nearby, especially in Balatonfüred. We have 
reserved a few double and triple rooms in the guest house
on site as well which can be booked by the participants on a 
first-come-first-served basis.

We apologize if you receive this message more than once.

With best regards yours,

Savely Karshenboim and Dezso Horvath
Co-chairpersons
