The Center for Nonlinear Studies
25th Annual International Conference

May 16 - 20, 2005
Radisson Santa Fe Hotel
Santa Fe, New Mexico USA
May 2005 marks 50 years of the seminal paper by Enrico Fermi, John Pasta, and Stanislaw Ulam simulating a mass-nonlinear spring chain. This discovery evolved into a whole new era of nonlinear science including localized excitations in many fields of physics: intrinsic localized modes and breathers in low-dimensional materials and nonlinear lattices, optical transmission, Bose-Einstein condensates, biophysics.

In addition, during this conference we will celebrate 25 years of the Center for Nonlinear Studies (CNLS) which cradled and incubated many new ideas in nonlinear science including chaos, turbulence, finance, networks, and solitons.		 Featured Speakers:
