                              Bay of Mirabello with the venue hotel and town of 
                              Agios Nikolaos in the back 
                              Traditionally, this is a two-day biennial 
                                satellite meeting taking place right after ICPEAC 
                                usually attracting about 60-90 participants from 
                                all over the world. It gives the participants 
                                an opportunity to present and exchange detailed 
                                information at a smaller specialized meeting set 
                                in a congenial and personalized atmosphere.  
                              The symposium covers all ion-atom collision 
                                phenomena including excitation, ionisation, multiple 
                                ionisation and capture reactions from sub-thermal 
                                to relativistic velocities as well as interactions 
                                of highly charged ions with surfaces, molecules 
                                and clusters.  
								
                              Additionally, this year's XX ISIAC will also 
                                include the SPARC 
                                topical meeting on Electron Spectrometry in the 
                                New Experimental Storage Ring (NESR). 
                                Organized by the SPARC electron spectrometers 
                                group, it will include a special session on electron 
                                and positron emission processes in relativistic 
                                high-Z few-electron ion-atom collisions. The NESR 
                                is planned to be built soon at GSI-Darmstadt under 
                                the FAIR/SPARC 
                                initiative. 
								
                              The venue hotel is the  
                                MIRABELLO Beach Hotel at Agios 
                                Nikolaos, Crete at which the talks and posters 
                                will be presented. Special preferential rates 
                                for ISIAC participants have been secured for all 
                                official conference accomodations. Agios 
                                Nikolaos (literally Saint Nicholas -- pronounced 
                                Ayios Nikolaos but also many times spelled as 
                                Aghios Nikolaos) is a small picturesque town on 
                                the north coast of Crete about 70km east of  
                                Heraklion, the main port of entry.
