General Information
The proceedings of the meeting will be published by Elsevier Science
on behalf of COSPAR in the
COSPAR Colloquia Series. The editors are P.C.H. Martens (MSU) and D.
Cauffman (LMSAL). All papers will be refereed.
Page Limits
Page limits are
2 pages for posters, 4 pages for contributed papers, and 10 pages
for invited reviews. Each author will be charged by Elsevier for
their own color images included in the proceedings. The rates
are $700 for the first page, and
$350 for each subsequent page of
color images.
Deadlines
We intend to submit the camera ready proceedings to
Elsevier Science before the end of 2001. We request that every
author submit a first draft of their paper at the meeting. We
prefer full papers, but the first draft may be limited to an
extended abstract, the full presentation, and a narrative. The
full papers must be submitted by October 31, 2001.
Manuscript Preparation
Authors may submit their papers in most common electronic formats
(LaTex, Word, WordPerfect), and figures must be in the accompanying
electronic form. We have prepared a LaTex guide doubling as a
sample paper in the format required by COSPAR. Download (by holding down "SHIFT" while clicking on the link) either the
gzipped tar-file
y10_template.tar.gz (85 kB), or each file
separately:
For those who do not use LaTex, the sample paper with format and
style instructions can be downloaded in PDF
(421 kB) and PostScript (885 kB) format. It will
also be distributed as part of the registration package.
Manuscript Submission
Before you submit, please print out your paper with figures and verify that all comes
out as intended. We will return submissions with LaTex errors and figures that won't
print. If your paper has photographs that need to be pasted in,
mail us a hardcopy of your paper and figures, else electronic submission is
sufficient.
You can submit your paper and figures via ftp as follows (your input is in blue):

ftp> put mcmullen.tex (for convenience
of the editors, please use first_author_last_name.tex as the naming convention)
ftp> put mcmullen_fig1.eps (Please use the indicated
naming convention for your figures, also for the figure reference inside your paper!
Your figure may be gzipped if that is convenient for you; use the .gz

For security reasons, revised or corrected submissions cannot overwrite the earlier file version, so please
use the convention "mcmullen_v2.tex", and higher if you need to make corrections.
The editors will review all the manuscripts, and may ask you for clarifications and/or revisions via email.
Please help us adhere to the deadline of October 31st, 2001. Thank you for your cooperation!
