+++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++ RIKEN Symposium on Spin Structure of the Nucleon December 18-19, 1995 at Nishina Hall, RIKEN +++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++ First Announcement ++++++++++++++++++++ The RIKEN Symposium on Spin Structure of the Nucleon will be held at Nishina Hall, RIKEN, from December 18 to 19, 1995. The symposium covers current topics of the polarized nucleon structure functions and related subjects, and physics beyond the standard model. The fields of hadron/nuclear and particle physics from GeV to TeV energy region are included. Recent activities and development on the RHIC spin project, which utilizes the RHIC as a polarized proton-proton collider at the center-of-mass energy of 50 to 500 GeV, are also included. The symposium will consist of about fifteen invited talks/lectures presented by leading physicists in the field and short oral presentations. We expect a hot discussion after each presentation of invited speaker. Participants should feel free to show a few viewgraphs during the discussion time if needed. Organizing Committee: T.-A.
