OBJECTIVES AND SCOPE
The Conference was held on September 22-26, 2004, in Zvenigorod, Russia.
Capillary optics was conceived in Russia and patented at the beginning of eighties. A series of meetings on this topic was initiated in 1988-1990 in the former USSR, with the participation of the foreign physicists. From 1993 special sessions on the capillary optics were included in the program of SPIE International Symposiums.
The second conference in the Moscow region provided an international forum for presenting the most recent achievements in x-ray and neutron capillary optics and discussion of newly discovered scientific, technical and technological problems currently hindering progress in this field.
During the conference, an exhibition was organized, including the most recently developed instruments and devices from IRO.
The conference technical program included invited presentations, selected oral presentations, and poster sessions.
