In 1999 the Center continued the program of the support
scientific conferences and schools. The announcement was published in
the newspaper "Poisk" No.51-52 (501-502) at December 19-31, 1998.
The Center has received 35 applications and allocated a financial
support to >24 scientific conferences and schools
that provide a broad representation of various scientific schools in
the field of fundamental physics, organized on the territory of Russia.
The financial means provided by the Center (from 10000 to 30000 roubles
per conference) were destinated to pay the travel and living expenses of
participants from Russia.
The program started in 1998 of the support of the research projects in
the field of theoretical physics of young scientists
without any scientific degree under the age 30 was continued in 1999.
According to the results of evaluation of the annual reports a decision
on the continuation of stipends for 1999 was made for 28 young scientists.
It was found that one young scientist did not fulfil the conditions of the
program. Other three young scientists refused themselves from the
continuation of the project besause of the travel plans for 1999
incopmatible with the conditions of the program. The Scientific Council
of ICFPM therefore has suggested INTAS to redistribute the respective
stipends to other four candidates from the top of the reserve list
composed by the Council in 1998.
In 1999, the activities of the Center were financed by the Ministry of
Science and Technological Policy of Russian Federation and INTAS.
A summary of the scientific results obtained under INTAS project 96-0457
can be found at extracts from the Final
Report.
