Charles Sturt University, Wagga Wagga, NSW, Australia
2nd – 5th February 2016
The 40th Annual Condensed Matter and Materials Meeting was held at Charles Sturt University, Wagga Wagga, NSW from 2 – 5 February, 2016. There were 116 attendees, including international visitors from Scotland, China, Taiwan and New Zealand. A total of
10 invited and 29 contributed oral papers were presented during the two and one half days of scientific sessions. There were also two sessions with a total of 70 poster presentations. All presenters were invited to submit a manuscript (six pages for invited papers and four for contributed papers) for publication in the conference proceedings. Each manuscript was refereed by at least two anonymous reviewers who worked to a set of guidelines made
available by the editor. Each accepted publication therefore satisfies the requirements for classification as a refereed conference publication (E1). The organizers would like to thank
the reviewers for their time and effort in reviewing manuscripts, which resulted in 9 papers being accepted for publication. The accepted manuscripts are available below. To view a paper just click on its title (one paper is not yet available).
