%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%
% Insert abstract text in the following part.
%
% Follow the example for equations, references, tables and figures.
%
% Remember: if you want the character % to be printed in your text,
% you must use \% (otherwise a comment command is understood).
%
% Use \\ or a blank line to start a new paragraph.
%
% Maximum length of the abstract (including figures and references) is
% three printed pages. Check carefully the length!

Abstracts for YAO 2002 must be prepared in \LaTeX\ according to
the present example. Submissions must be made following the
guidelines in the Conference web page ({\em
http://yao2002.df.unipi.it}). Preparation of a \LaTeX\ document
requires, first of all, writing a source file (file extension
.tex), i.e. essentially a text file manageable by any text editor
(including most word processors - remember in this case to save
the document as a text file!). To obtain a printable formatted
document, a \LaTeX\ compiler must be used. Since only submission
of the source (.tex) file is required, you could in principle do
without \LaTeX\ compilation, and only prepare the source file
using any text editor. In this case, however, you cannot detect
possible syntax problems in the compilation, and you cannot check
the length of the abstract, which is restricted to three printed
pages (A4 size).

Equations can be included in the abstract as follows:
\begin{equation}
    \label{lawofmotion}
    \vec{F}=m \vec{a} .
\end{equation}
Any reference to the
equation within the text can then be made as Eq.~(\ref{lawofmotion}).

Equation arrays can be created as
\begin{eqnarray}
    -\frac{\hbar^2}{2m}\frac{\partial}{\partial x} \psi & = &(E-\tilde{V}(x))\psi(x)
    \\
    \Psi_n(x,t) & \rightarrow & \psi_n(x) \exp(-\imath E_n t/\hbar)
    \\
    \int_{-\infty}^{+\infty} \psi(x) dx & = & 1 .
\end{eqnarray}
Note the role of the ampersand character used to align
text horizontally.

The following is an example of a table to be included in the
abstract.

\begin{table}[h!]
\centering \caption[ ]{\label{table1} Location of the last YAO
Meetings.}

\begin{tabular}{cccc}
% the {cccc} command instructs LaTeX to produce a 4-column table with
% centered text
    \hline\hline
    Conference & Year & City & Country
     \\
% Note the ampersand command used to jump to the next column
% and the double backslash to jump to the next row
    \hline
    YAO & 1998 & Gir-sur-Yvette & France
    \\
    YAO & 1999 & Potsdam & Germany
    \\
    YAO & 2000 & Brighton & UK
    \\
    YAO & 2001 & Stuttgart & Germany
    \\
    \hline\hline
\end{tabular}
\end{table}

The list of references, if any, must be put at the end of the
document. Each reference is identified by a ``bibitem'' label,
and can be referred to in the text as
\cite{Einstein}. Please, use standard AIP conventions for Author,
Journal, Volume Numbers, Page, Year, or Author, Book Title, Page,
Publisher, Year, as in the example at the end of this abstract.

Figures can be imported into the abstract by preparing them as
Encapsulated PostScript Files (file extension .eps or .epsf),
which must be submitted electronically along with the abstract
file (see guidelines at {\em http://yao2002.df.unipi.it}).
Standard PostScript files can be used as well, but you have to
provide appropriate ``bounding boxes'' for the figure, and put
them (by hand) into the PostScript header. Since the size of the
abstract will be reduced to approximately 50 \% prior to final
printout and preparation of the abstract booklet, please use
appropriate lettering size in the figures. If possible, try to use
standard PostScript fonts (as Times, Helvetica, Courier, Symbols)
for the characters to appear in the figure(s). This will reduce
the size of the prepared files, and prevent possible problems in
the printout procedure.

To import a figure (represented here by file sampfig.eps), just follow
the example for Fig.~\ref{samplefigure}.

\begin{figure}[h!]
\centering
\psfig{figure=sampfig.eps,scale=1.0}
\caption[ ]{\label{samplefigure}
Example of a figure representing a (very) partial energy level-Grotrian
diagram for Rubidium (adapted from \cite{Smirnov}).}
\end{figure}

Note the possibility to scale the size of the figure, which can be
useful to keep the overall length of the abstract within three
printed pages.

The {\bf deadline} for abstract submission to YAO 2002 is {\bf
March 15, 2002}.
\\

{\bf Acknowledgments.} The YAO 2002 Organizers have limited means
to check, edit and amend submitted abstracts. Thus, you are
gratefully acknowledged in advance for the efforts you will make
in order to prepare your abstract file correctly and completely .
