12^th International Workshop on Meson Production, Properties and Interaction
KRAKÓW, POLAND
31 May - 5 June 2012
The Institute of Physics of Jagiellonian University, Forschungszentrum Jülich, INFN-LNF Frascati and Institute of Nuclear Physics PAN Cracow are organizing a biennial workshop to establish closer contacts between experimentalists and theorists involved in the studies of meson production, properties and interaction. The workshop will cover lectures on both experimental and theoretical aspects, in particular the presentation of new results.

The main topics of the workshop are:

• hadronic meson production in various reactions,
• electromagnetic meson production,
• meson interaction with mesons, nucleons and nuclei,
• structure and interaction of hadrons,
• fundamental symmetries,
• exotic systems.

The intention is to provide an overview of the present status in these fields, as well as of new developments, and a preview of the forthcoming investigations. This workshop - the eleventh of the series - will maintain the tradition of the workshops organized since 1991 at Cracow. The proceedings of the most recent workshop, MESON2010 have been published in International Journal of Modern Physics A Volume: 26, Issues: 3-4 (10 February 2011).

A poster session is foreseen as an opportunity for students and young scientists to present the results of their work.
