Since the year 2000, the International Spin Physics Symposium series joined together the High Energy Spin Symposia and the Nuclear Polarization Conferences. Thus the scientific programme of this Symposium includes the topics of relevance to spin physics in medium-low energy reactions and polarization phenomena in nuclear physics, as well as those relevant to high energy spin physics. The previous two editions of new series of Symposia were held in Osaka, Japan (October 2000) and at BNL, USA (September 2002), respectively. The Trieste Symposium is the third of the series.

The 18th International Spin Physics Symposium will be held October 6 - 11, 2008 in Charlottesville, Virginia, USA. The Symposium is open to all bona fide scientists regardless of citizenship or national origin. The International Spin Physics Symposium combines the High Energy Spin Symposia and the Nuclear Polarization Conferences so that all topics relevant to spin physics in nuclear and low to high energy reactions and associated fields will be included in the Symposium program.

The 16th International Spin Physics Symposium, spin2004, will be held during October 10-16, 2004 in Trieste, Italy. The Symposium is open to all scientists, regardless of citizenship and nationality. The Symposium will be organized by the Trieste Section of Istituto Nazionale di Fisica Nucleare (INFN), and will be hosted by the Abdus Salam International Centre for Theoretical Physics (ICTP) in Miramare, Trieste, Italy.

Last year, around 300 physicists attended the 16th International Spin Physics Symposium, SPIN 2004, which was held on 10-16 October in Trieste, Italy. The event was organized by the Trieste section of the Istituto Nazionale di Fisica Nucleare (INFN) and was hosted by the Abdus Salam International Centre for Theoretical Physics (ICTP) on the beautiful Miramare campus. The symposium ... benefited from the support and infrastructure of the nearby International School for Advanced Studies (SISSA).

Composite particles ... possess magnetic moments associated with their spin. In particular, the neutron possesses a non-zero magnetic moment despite being electrically neutral. This fact was an early indication that the neutron is not an elementary particle. In fact, it is made up of quarks, which are electrically charged particles. The magnetic moment of the neutron comes from the moments of the individual quarks and their orbital motions.

The purpose of the RHIC Spin Group is to provide leadership and support for the RHIC spin program at BNL, and to provide for the common requirements of the spin program, particularly for polarimetry. STAR spin, PHENIX spin, and polarimetry are combined within one group.
