> Dear colleague,
>
> This is  the second announcement for the VIIIth International
> Conference on Strangeness in Quark Matter, to be held in Cape Town,
> South Africa,  September 15 - 20, 2004.
> The conference will include  five days of conference talks, and a  half
> day excursion on Saturday.
>
> SQM is a well-established conference series bringing together scientists
> working in  the fields of cosmology, particle and nuclear physics.
> Previous conferences were held in North Carolina (2003), Frankfurt (2001),
> Berkeley (2000), Padova (1998), Santorini (1997), Budapest (1996),
> Tucson (1995), Crete (1994),  Aarhus (1991).
> It will take place at the Graduate School of Business on the Breakwater
Campus
> of the University  of Cape Town.
> The conference  will focus on the physics of strange quarks in matter
> and  on heavy flavour (c,b) production in nuclei, including their role
> in characterizing hot hadronic matter and quark-gluon plasma formation.
> Results from elementary particle collisions will also be presented.
> In addition to recent theoretical work, new results from
> experiments will be presented.
> The future heavy-ion programme at the LHC (ALICE, ATLAS, CMS)
> and GSI will also be discussed.
> Young researchers (Ph.D. students and postdocs)
> are encouraged to attend the conference, and  assistance will be available
> to cover the local costs of board and lodging in the meeting.
> The URL of the conference website is:
> http://hep.phy.uct.ac.za/sqm2004
