Dear Friends: <br>
<br>
We would like to draw your attention to <span
itemprop="description">The International Symposium on
Opportunities in Underground Physics<br>
(ISOUP) to be held at Asilomar in California. The dates of the
symposium are May 25 to May 27. May 24 is the <br>
the travel and registration day.<br>
<br>
</span> <span itemprop="description">The International Symposium on
Opportunities in Underground Physics is being organized as a forum
to strengthen both US and international support for a world-class
underground facility in the US for physics research. In
particular, we wish to accelerate the construction of LBNE as a
highly capable experiment comprising a high-intensity neutrino
beam and a 20-kiloton or larger far detector located in a deep
underground facility. This configuration for LBNE would enable the
physics community to probe deeply into neutrino physics and pursue
a wide range of fundamental physics goals. <br>
<br>
The website for the meeting is here:<br>

<br>
The program will include invited theoretical and experimental
talks on the subjects of neutrino and underground <br>
physics. In addition to the invited talks there will be a
roundtable discussion concerning international coordination<br>
in this field. We expect there to be plenty of discussion on the
sidelines of the meeting. <br>
We would like to make this a productive meeting that can inform
the particle and nuclear physics <br>
planning process both in the US and abroad.<br>
<br>
We wish to invite you to participate in this symposium. <br>
Please preregister at the symposium website as soon as you can
and include the <br>
dates in your travel plans. We will send you a reminder for full
registration shortly. <br>
<br>
regards, <br>
