International Conference on Magnetism

DEC 01, 1958
B. Dreyfus

About two hundred participants, of whom three quarters came from abroad, were present at the International Conference on Magnetism that was held July 2–6, 1958, at Grenoble, France. The presence of delegates from 19 different countries, numerically well distributed, gave this meeting a truly international character. At Strasbourg (1939) and Grenoble (1950) the numbers of papers presented were 25 and 50, respectively; in 1958 there were 78 papers, taking in all 30 hours of meeting time. As purely technical papers were excluded, a high scientific level was ensured.
