This lecture has just been revised, updated and completed: http://www.nndc.bnl.gov/amdc/masstables/hal.pdf SPECIAL SYMPOSIUM ON "ATOMIC HIGH-PRECISION MASS SPECTROMETRY" The 69th annual meeting of the German Physical Society (DPG) will be held during the World Year / International Year of Physics March 04-09, 2005, in Berlin, Germany. More than 5000 physicists (with close to 7000 submitted abstracts for contributions) are expected to come. As a part of this meeting a special symposium on "Atomic high-precision mass spectrometry" (SYAM) will take place on Monday, March 07, 2005.
