Professor Eduard Hala (who passed away in August 1989), at that times - besides a lot of other scientific and managing activities - head of the Group of Chemical Thermodynamics of the Institute of Chemical Process Fundamentals, would live to be eighty in December 1999.
On this occasion, the "Eduard Hala Symposium on Thermodynamics" will be organised, devoted to the field that he loved. The Symposium will be held on 7-9 October, 1999 in Prague; the Symposium language will be English. The contributions of his students, friends and researchers working in the field will be presented. Besides, commemorative papers shall also be included.
The main lecture - and the first one in series of "E. Hála Lectures" - will be delivered by Professor Arnost Reiser (Brooklyn Polytechnic). He wrote together with E. Hala famous textbooks on physical chemistry hitherto used by several generations of students.
Venue: Czech Chemical Societies Association Club - Novotneho lavka 5, Praha 1
Everybody is welcome to attend all lectures, however, in the social programme only registered participants can take part.
