§1

The agenda was approved.

Sten Hellman agreed to verify the minutes.

The minutes of the last meeting were approved.

§2

Sten agreed to discuss November dates for the meeting of John Renner Hansen with the Stockholm/Uppsala groups and Leif Lönnblad takes care of the dates for a similar meeting in Lund. The goal is to have a second discussion in March, preferably in conjunction with Partikeldagarna in Stockholm.

§3

The board decided that Sten should check with Gunnar Ingelman if he would accept being a delegate if asked. If Ingelman is appointed and accepts we aim to propose someone from the experimental Lund group to fill the next vacancy, in order to keep the geographical balance.

§4

The board agreed that it would be desirable with a particle physicist in the board of the SFS, and Erik Johansson was suggested. Sten is going to check with Erik and propose him if he accepts.

§5

The board members agreed to check whether March 5-6 is a suitable date for Partikeldagarna, which are going to take place in Stockholm next year.

Fysikdagarna 2001 will take place November 14-17 in Linköping, and the meeting decided to make sure that the section is represented with people willing to popularize the subject. And in reply to the organizers we estimate that we need a room for 50-90 people in the downtown area.

The time of the next telephone meeting was planned to Tuesday November 7, 2000, at 11.00.
