This workshop was the first one in this series held since the announcement of the formation of cold anti-hydrogen by the ATHENA and ATRAP experiments. Research presented includes transport, collective modes, and the interplay between the two from both a particle and fluid perspective. This work is carried out in different geometries including cylindrical traps and toroidal systems. Research on cold anti-hydrogen is also represented, since accumulation of large numbers of antiprotons and positrons is a necessary precursor to recombination. Finally, several papers describing experiments on the physics of beams widens the scope to include beams and accelerators. The Workshop on Non-Neutral Plasma Physics brings together investigators from diverse areas whose research has the common feature of involving plasmas that have constituent particles with the same sign of charge.

The nineteen outstanding contributors to this deeply insightful book concur in envisioning a fundamentally new systematic concept of contract law that, while preserving the essential and‘architectureand’ of the existing European codes, would nonetheless find cogent ways to integrate such modern developments as mass transactions, chains and networks of contracts, regulation of markets and contracts to protect consumers, and service and long-term contracts into an optional European code. The book is organised along three major avenues: and• the systematic arrangement of a contract law code - how it deals with core questions of formation and performance or breach of contract, such as mistake and misrepresentation, standard contract terms, and remedies in the case of breach of contract; and• the apparent necessity to merge consumer contract law (i.e. such issues as product safety and liability, warranties, and consumer debt and insolvency) with traditional core contract law concepts; and and• the importance to substantive contract law of the pre-contractual phase, in which information duties are becoming steadily more paramount. The authors perspectives cover a wide range of jurisdictions, including new EU Member States. The bookand’s commitment to an integration of comparative law, EC law, and the debate on European codification offers practitioners and academics fertile ground for the development of a new model of contract law that is more than a common denominator of what has been in force so far. This model may serve as a basis for Europe-wide and perhaps even worldwide discussion.

Welche Einflüsse, ökonomischen Interessen und Verflechtungen stehen hinter den Regelungen des allgemeinen Handelsrechts und entscheiden dadurch das weitere Schicksal eines Unternehmens? Indem das Unternehmen selbst in den zentralen Blickpunkt der Betrachtung gestellt wird, soll den Studenten und Studentinnen eine wirtschaftsnahe Aufbereitung des Lehrstoffes gewährleistet werden. Auf diese Weise werden die Kernbereiche des allgemeinen Handelsrechts, insbesondere der Unternehmensschutz, die Unternehmenskennzeichen und die Unternehmensübertragung, behandelt. Ausführungen zu den allgemeinen Handelsgeschäften und den besonderen Vertragstypen (Absatzgeschäfte) runden den Text ab. Eine knappe, praxisrelevante und dennoch theoretisch fundierte Aufbereitung des Lehr- und Lernstoffes!
