<p>The <a href=”http://www.mcphase2011.com/”>first international school on McPhase</a> (a software suite for calculating magnetic/orbital phase diagrams and excitations: www.mcphase.de) will be held at the University of Oviedo, in Gijon on May 10-13, 2011. This school will be oriented mainly for PhD students or young investigators.</p>
<p>The general scheme of the school will be dealing with fundamental and applied aspects of magnetic materials containing <em>d</em> and <em>f</em> elements. The school will be organized in two main sessions: on the mornings introductory talks on different subjects will be given (exchange interactions, crystal field anisotropy, high order interactions,..); while the afternoons will be concentrated on practical session using the McPhase software suite.</p>
<p>The school will comprise invited lectures from distinguished scientists on the field, oral presentations and poster presentations.</p>
