Charles E. Porter

The Yugoslavian Summer Meeting on Nuclear Reactions was held from July 12 to 29 at Mali Lošinj, Lošinj Island, Yugoslavia. Present at the conference, which was organized by Professor Z. Janković of the Institut Rudjer Bošković in Zagreb, were seventy‐two participants the majority (thirty‐nine) of whom came from Yugoslavia and the others (thirty‐three) from all parts of Europe. The meeting was arranged to be something between a summer school and a research conference. Every morning there were three lectures of a review nature which lasted for three hours, and in the evening an hour was devoted to a research seminar. The afternoons were left open for study and recreation.
