First Bulletin

XLVII International Symposium on Multiparticle Dynamics
(ISMD2017)
September 11-15, 2017, Tlaxcala City, Mexico

https://indico.nucleares.unam.mx/e/ismd2017


The XLVII edition of the International Symposium on Multiparticle Dynamics
will take place in Tlaxcala City, Mexico, during September 11-15, 2017.
The Symposia are a series of mayor international high-energy physics
conferences addressed to theorists and experimentalists from three
different but related communities: High energy, heavy ion and
astroparticle physics. The common theme is the interest in reactions
involving a large number of particles in the final state. The previous two
meetings in the series took place in Jeju Island, South Korea (2016) and
Wildbad Kreuth (Germany). The goal is to provide a pleasant and
stimulating environment for presentation and discussion of recent
experimental and theoretical developments in the field. Attendance is
limited to about 100 participants.

4. Visas

The visa requirements to enter Mexico are listed in

http://www.mexperience.com/do-i-need-a-visa-to-visit-mexico/

Please notice that for some nationalities the visa application can take
several weeks to process. Plan accordingly. If you require applying for a
visa, please request from the organizing committee a letter of invitation.

5. Venue

Tlaxcala City, (see for example:

http://beta.visitmexico.com/en/main-destinations/tlaxcala/tlaxcala)

is a small colonial town in Central Mexico located about 120 kilometers
east from Mexico City. The ride can take between one and a half and two
hours depending on traffic. Participants arriving on Sunday, September 10
to Mexico City’s international airport will be taken by bus to the
conference hotel in Tlaxcala City. There will be one bus departing at
13:00 hrs. and another one at 19:00 hrs. Please plan your flight
accordingly. More details will be provided shortly. For those not taking
the conference buses, the easiest way to reach Tlaxcala City from Mexico
City’s international airport is to take a taxi to the east bus station
(TAPO). From there you can take a bus to Tlaxcala City. The only bus line
providing a direct service to Tlaxcala City is ATAH. From the bus station
in Tlaxcala City take a taxi to Hotel Posada San Francisco. Schedule,
prices and duration of the ride can be checked in
