Solar
Polarization Workshop 11
Solar Polarization Workshop 11 (SPW11)
is organized by the
Astronomical Institute of the Czech Academy of Sciences in Prague from September 8th to 12th, 2025.
This edition of SPW carries special significance as it commemorates the 30th anniversary since the inception of the Solar Polarization Workshop series, which originated in St. Petersburg in 1995. SPW11 is dedicated to honoring the remarkable contributions of Prof. Javier Trujillo Bueno, a distinguished figure in the field of solar polarization research.
IAU Symposium 400 Solar and Stellar Multi-Scale Activity
The IAU Symposium 400, jointly held with the DynaSun Network Workshop, will address critical knowledge gaps in solar and stellar physics. This combined event aims to leverage recent advancements and foster collaboration between traditionally independent solar and stellar communities, while also exploring cutting-edge research on solar dynamics, heliospheric processes, and their broader implications through interdisciplinary exchange and joint efforts.
IAU Symposium 400, taking place from July 21-25, 2025, in Medellín, Colombia.
SHIELD Summer School
The NASA SHIELD DRIVE Science Center
The 2025 SHIELD Summer School, titled “Plasma Processes at the Edge of the Solar System”, will be held at Boston University during June 2nd – 6th, 2025. The summer school was an intensive one-week course in the most challenging plasma processes that drive the structure and dynamics at the Edge of the Solar System.
June 2nd – June 6th, 2025 at Boston University, Boston Massachusetts
Planets on the Edge
The Kepler and TESS missions, as well as ground-based telescopes, have discovered thousands of planets on short-period orbits around other stars, including many that are Earth-size and likely to be rocky. These objects have no direct counterparts in the Solar System, and the corresponding inner regions within the protoplanetary disks that spawned them are challenging to study. This conference will confront this challenge and advance our understanding of the nature, formation and evolution of Earth-sized planets in inner protoplanetary disks by bringing together diverse experts in exoplanet demographics, protoplanetary disks, models of disks and planet formation
Registration deadline is: Apr 13, 2025.
Conference begins (with registration): May 5, 2025 at 08:50 am
