The theoretical sessions of the Course are partly
sponsored by Psi-k (Euro-Network for Electronic Structure Calculations
funded by the European Science Foundation (ESF) through an ESF Programme
on 'Electronic Structure Calculations for Elucidating the Complex Atomistic
Behaviour of Solids and Surfaces', see http://www.psi-k.org/). The assistance
of Priv.-Doz. N. Dubrovinskaia (Heidelberg, Germany) in establishing
the coordination of the activity with the Psi-k is gratefully acknowledged
