The ETSF is a knowledge center for theoretical spectroscopy carrying out state-of-the-art research on theoretical and computational methods for studying electronic and optical properties of materials. The ETSF offers its expertise to researchers, industry, and students in the form of collaborative projects, free scientific software and training.

The ETSF INFORMAL workshop takes place at the INFN national Labs in Frascati, near Rome (Italy). It will start on Monday, september 4 at lunch time and finish on Thursday 7 afternoon. An extra day (Friday 8) is considered for extra discussions among the participants.

Like in Palaiseau two years ago, this INFORMAL workshop is centered on lively discussions of open, exciting, undiscovered, unclear questions. This means new developments, open questions, thoughts and challenges. So especially unfinished work is very welcome!

Notice that the workshop is also CHEAP:

- There will be no registration fee

- Lunches will be all together at the INFN canteen (but you will have to pay yourself, average cost is 8€).

- Dinners will not be organized. In Frascati there are plenty of restaurants/pubs/pizzerie where you can dine.

NOTE: A social dinner is organized September 6 to celebrate the 10 years of ETSF
