Research workshops on Nucleation Theory and Applications have been organised at the Joint Institute for Nuclear Research in Dubna, Russia, since 1997 every year in close co-operation between the Department of Physics of the University of Rostock, Germany (Dr. Jürn W. P. Schmelzer, Prof. Gerd Röpke) and the Bogoliubov Laboratory of Theoretical Physics of the Joint Institute for Nuclear Research (JINR), Dubna, Russia (Prof. Vyatcheslav B. Priezzhev, Dr. Vyatcheslav I. Zhuravlev, Mrs. Galina G. Sandukovskaya). The organisation of the workshops was and is supported by colleagues from the International Department of the JINR (Mrs. Elena N. Rusakovich) and sponsored by the Heisenberg - Landau program of the German Ministry for Science and Technology (BMBF), the Deutsche Forschungs-gemeinschaft (DFG), the German Academic Exchange Council (DAAD), the Russian Foundation for Basic Research and others. The general aim of the workshops was and is -to discuss recent developments in this field with particular emphasis on the work done in the different groups invited; -to establish and/or tighten direct co-operation links in the framework of different common projects (DFG, BMBF, DAAD, RFBR, etc.); -to bring together a number of leading scientists in the field of the theoretical description and experimental investigations of first-order phase transformations and critical phenomena of the member countries of JINR, Germany and beyond in order to perform or develop new research projects in this field; to check whether the experimental facilities available at the JINR in Dubna can be utilised for an experimental investigation of the kinetics of phase transformation processes in different systems of interest. These aims could be fully realised as it is evident also from the Workshop Proceedings which have been published in Dubna in 1999, 2002, 2005, 2008, 2011, and 2013 (special issue, vol. 1). In the present year, another monograph (J. W. P. Schmelzer (Ed.): Glass: Selected Properties and Crystallization, de Gruyter, 2014) was published reflecting different circles of problems analyzed at the workshops.
