Conférences - Astronomie, astrophysique et cosmologie - Royaume-Uni

The 21st instalment of the String Phenomenology conference will be hosted at the Univeristy of Liverpool. This annual conference discusses recent progress in compactifications of string theory and their relation to particle physics and cosmology.

The Royal Astronomical Society is proud to present the next National Astronomy Meeting, NAM 2022, to be hosted by the University of Warwick from Monday 11th July to Friday 15th July, 2022. The format (in-person vs online vs hybrid) will be announced before registration opens. The conference will bring together members of the UK’s astronomy/astrophysics, UK Solar Physics (UKSP), and Magnetosphere Ionosphere and Solar-Terrestrial (MIST) communities, and will present a wide-reaching programme to reflect the diversity and interests of these communities.

A century ago the theory of stellar evolution was in its infancy. Ideas abounded on the equation of state, the internal structure and the energy source. The next few decades saw consolidation with Saha' theory of ionization in 1920 leading to Payne's affirmation that the stars are predominantly hydrogen in 1925, Gamov's calculations of quantum mechanical tunnelling in 1925 leading ultimately to the nuclear fusion reactions we understand today. By fifty years ago we had acquired a good qualitative understanding of the physics of stars and the time was ripe for the first quantitative models of stars. It was around this time that Peter Eggleton arrived on the scene. His legacy lives on today in stellar evolution codes used throughout the world. Today the theory has matured. We can now examine the details, adding extra mixing processes, detailed nucleosynthesis and two or three dimensional effects. Complementing the theory observations are improving rapidly, asteroseismology reveals internal structure, Gaia's parallaxes give us unprecedented luminosity precision and sensitive mass spectrometric measurements of dust grains test the details of stellar structure, mixing, and nuclear reactions. The aim of this conference is to bring together international experts working in stellar evolution and observation to consolidate our current understanding and look to what is in store for the future.

The goal of the conference is to bring together an international community of researchers in observational and theoretical astrophysics, to work towards a solution to one of the most important problems in modern extra-galactic astronomy: why do galaxies stop forming stars?

Kavli Institute for Cosmology, Cambridge

A joint workshop organised by KICC, INAF-Arcetri, University of Florence and Scuola Normale Superiore Pisa to discuss the role of chemical abundances in shaping our understandings of galaxy evolution across the cosmic epochs.

The Meeting A Week of Exciting Talks and an Optional Retreat OPEN! Registration, abstract submission, and accommodation booking. The early bird registration and abstract submission deadline is at midnight UK-time on April 22nd! Those in-person participants requiring travel visas for which letters proving participation in the event should contact the Chair as soon as they are able. ​ Forming and Exploring Habitable Worlds is a multi-discipline four to five day international meeting taking place in Edinburgh, UK, in November 2022. This event is to accommodate up to 120 in-person delegates of all career stages based in a range of relevant employment sectors. A hybrid model is envisaged to be delivered so as to broaden participation by accommodating virtual attendance of additional delegates.
