***********************  2nd Announcement  ***********************

               6th Birmingham Extragalactic Workshop
                     "Cooling in Cosmology"
                        July 2-3, 2002


Plans for the workshop are progressing, and a preliminary list of
talks for the meeting is appended below, though we don't have a
detailed schedule yet. If you haven't given us a final title for your
talk yet, or want to change the title below, please contact us this
week.

There are still a few slots available for talks, and we can accomodate
about 10 more people for the Workshop. So late registrations (see form
on http://www.sr.bham.ac.uk/workshop/) will be allowed until
               ***** Monday June 9th *****
when we need to finalise numbers and the programme.

We welcome attendance by postgraduate students, so if any of the
younger members of your group would like to attend, please encourage
them to do so. The total cost, including meals, for someone staying in
student accomodation, is only 65 pounds.

A webpage with details of the workshop has been set up at
