They did show with their contributions how broad the application range <strong>of</strong> Computational Thermochemistry<br />
has meanwhile become and how successful it can be applied.<br />
Special thanks are also given to Mr. I. Amamoto, Japan Nuclear Cycle Development <strong>In</strong>stitute, and Dr. R.<br />
Hidaka, Hyogo Ecotown, for their support <strong>of</strong> the meetings in Tokai and Kobe respectively. We would furthermore<br />
like to express our thanks to our colleagues at RCCM 2 , in particular Mr. Yuichi Nagano, who put a great<br />
deal <strong>of</strong> effort into the organisation <strong>of</strong> the workshops. It is planned to have a similar meeting in Tokyo again<br />
next year.<br />
Upcoming events in 2006<br />
Several <strong>of</strong> our users have indicated that early information about the important dates in the new year is desired.<br />
Please note the following:<br />

Recent publications<br />
<strong>In</strong> the context <strong>of</strong> the second discussion forum on corrosion <strong>of</strong> steam generators in Freiberg, Germany, a<br />
proceedings volume has been edited by the chairman Pr<strong>of</strong>. Dr. M. Born (Dampferzeugerkorrosion, ISBN<br />
3-934409-27-X) in which several contributions show the importance <strong>of</strong> the use <strong>of</strong> Computational Thermochemistry<br />
(represented by FactSage 4 and ChemApp 5 ) for <strong>this</strong> field. More information on the book, including<br />
a table <strong>of</strong> contents, is available on the web site <strong>of</strong> the publisher 6 , where the book can also be ordered.<br />
