Here is the second announcment of the Space Plasma Summer School, to
be held in Russia in June 1993.

We think we have a very attractive list of lecturers, with the Noble laureate
Anthony Hewish the top of the bill.  Don't be late or you may miss it because
of limitations in the number of attendees.

			      Second announcement

	      International Summer School on Space Plasma Physics


				  Organised by
       Radiophysical Research Institute, NIRFI, Nizhniy Novgorod, Russia
				      and
	   Swedish Institute of Space Physics, IRFU, Uppsala, Sweden
				   to be held

	   Onboard a Cruise Ship on the Volga River, 1--10 June, 1993




The purpose of the school is to give an introduction to the problems
of linear and non-linear space plasma physics, ionospheric modification,
the use of the ionosphere as a space plasma laboratory, as well as to
discuss current topics in astrophysics and ionospheric, solar, and
stellar plasma physics.

General and topical lectures will be mixed with seminars and poster
sessions.  The lecture notes and reports of new results will be pubished
in "Radiophysics and Quantum Electronics".  The definitive list of
lecturers and lectures will be included in the school programme that
will be mailed to all participants.  Applications for attendance must be
submitted before 1 March, 1993 to either of:

There will be an excursion to Vasil'sursk where the NIRFI radio
observatory ``Sura'' is located.  The cultural program of the school
includes sightseeing in interesting old Russian towns on the upper
Volga, art exhibitions, and other activities.

The total cost for full board an lodging on the ship for the school is
estimated at between US300 and US500, depending on type of cabin (first
class single, first class double, second class singel, second class
double).
