Seminar on Problems of Measurability in Quantum Gravity and of Dark Part of
Universe is dedicated to the 100th Anniversary of Matvey P. Bronstein
(02.12.1906-18.02.1938) — professor of the Leningrad (St.Petersburg)
State University and research fellow of the A.F.Ioffe Physical Technical Institute,
whose seminal papers on quantization of gravity were pioneering in a long and not
yet completed search for understanding Particle Physics at short distances.
As well M.P. Bronstein was a first one in his conjecture on the variable cosmological
constant that nowadays is associated to Dark Energy in Universe. His important
contributions into different areas of theoretical physics: from semiconductors to
astrophysics — were indispensable in development of physics knowledge in Europe and
beyond.

The Seminar will start on 30.November 2006 at 10:00 in the main building of
the St.Petersburg State University (Peter's Hall) where M.P.Bronstein gave his
lectures on theoretical physics. On 1. and 2.December it will last in the
Institute of Applied Astronomy. The preliminary program is based on about 20
invited talks (50 min. + 10 min. for discussion) and it includes at least one
Round Table to dispute the modern state of gravity quantization, dark side of
Universe and beyond.

The Seminar is sponsored by
 St. Petersburg State University
Institute of Applied Astronomy of Russian Academy of Sciences
Russian Fond for Basic Research
Dmitry Zimin Dynasty Foundation

The participation in the Seminar is free: no registration fee is required.
On the other hand, at present the Organizing committee does not yet have any
funds to reimburse participants living and travel expenses. However for a better
organization (the auditorium capacity, badges, participant's kit etc.)
the preliminary registration is very welcome and it is certainly necessary for
participants who need an accommodation.

Contacts: any questions on the scientific program, accomodation and
travel can be also addressed to Co-chairman Alexander Andrianov
and Scientific Secretary Vladimir Andrianov from "Contacts" page.
