The international conference on cosmic dust that runs every fifth year is now running in Copenhagen. Research on cosmic dust has grown in importance over the past decade due to the unparalleled sensitivity of new astronomical facilities operating at radio regimes, such as the ALMA array, and the Planck, and Herschel satellites. These five-yearly meetings give dust-specialists [...]
The Kapteyn Astronomical Institute of the University of Groningen organises a three day workshop focusing on the observational and astrophysical importance of neutral hydrogen in our understanding of galaxy evolution. This workshop aims to discuss in particular the use of neutral hydrogen observations to investigate the relevant physical processes of gas accretion, removal and outflows. In addition, the [...]
The 9th meeting of the Planck and Herschel project on Cold Cores will be held from June 4th to 7th, 2018 in Besançon (France), hosted by the Besançon observatory (OSU THETA, Institute UTINAM and University of Franche-Comté) and co-sponsored by RadioNet. Recent results obtained by the collaboration about the early phases of star formation using [...]
The workshop “The Power of Faraday Tomography — towards 3D mapping of cosmic magnetic fields” will take place next week in Miyazaki, Japan. It focuses on a powerful new analysis technique, Faraday Tomography, that enables disentangling overlapping Faraday rotation contributions along a line of sight. Faraday Tomography of polarized synchrotron emission will thus allow us to [...]
Call for Proposals - Deadline June 5, 2018, 15:00 UT) The 100-m radio telescope of the Max-Planck-Institut für Radioastronomie and the data reduction facilities are available to all qualified scientists. The present policy allows the allocation of up to 40% of available observing time to external astronomers. Call for Proposals - Deadline June 5, 2018, [...]
Today started the IAU Symposium 342: Perseus in Sicily in Noto, Italy. For one week, until May 13, 2018, multi-wavelength observers and theoreticians, experts from the event horizon out to the Megaparsec scales, meet and discuss, near to the INAF 32m radio telescope and the CTA-ASTRI prototype. While the Perseus system is an ideal stage to [...]
Thee 11th East Asia VLBI Workshop (EAVW) 2018 will take place September 4-7, 2018 in Korea, hosted by the Korea Astronomy and Space Science Institute. The venue is PyeongChang where the 2018 Olympic Winter Games was held and it is also one of the candidate sites for the Extended-KVN.In particular, this time will be a [...]
