Dear Colleagues:

With the ICFA workshop on "The Physics and Applications of High Brightness Electron Beams" only six weeks away, it is now time to organize our working groups. In order to proceed with this task, we now ask for contributed talk titles (and, optionally, abstracts), to be sent to working group leaders:

A) High brightness beam production - please send abstracts to John Schmerge at
schmerge@SLAC.Stanford.EDU.

B) Collective effects and instabilities during electron beam pulse compression - please send abstracts to Torsten Limberg at limberg@desy.de

C) Application to FELs - please send abstracts to Heinz-Dieter Nuhn at Nuhn@SLAC.Stanford.EDU

D) Application to advanced accelerators - please send abstracts to Mitsuru Uesaka at uesaka@tokai.t.u-tokyo.ac.jp.

If you are not able to determine the appropriate working group for your abstract you may send it to me. Otherwise, please send your abstract directly to the group leader.

See you in Sardinia,
Jamie Rosenzweig
