Junior scientist event WELTPP-14
The 14th Workshop on the Exploration of Low Temperature Plasma Physics (WELTPP-14) will be held on December 1st and 2nd, 2011 at the old convent Rolduc in Kerkrade. This workshop is intended for active scientists working in the field of low temperature plasma physics.
The aim of this workshop is to create a forum for young low temperature plasma scientists, that is graduate students and postdoctoral researchers, to meet, learn from each other, exchange knowledge, present results and establish new contacts. The emphasis is on the presentation of the work of the people new in this field. The meeting will be a two days session starting on Thursday before lunch and finishing on Friday afternoon.
The program can be found here.

IBEX SWT and Workshop "Three Years of Observations with IBEX - What did we learn about the Outer Heliosphere?"
Date: 28 - 31 March 2012, Physikzentrum Bad Honnef, Germany
Three years after the successful launch of the Interstellar Boundary Explorer (IBEX) and, thus, after three years of measurements of Energetic Neutral Atoms (ENAs), it is time to critically assess what new insights into the physics of the outer heliosphere and its boundaries have been gained from this mission. Such assessment will be valuable because the science of IBEX is related to several central topics of present heliophysical research, namely
(i) the plasma and magnetic field structure of the outer heliosphere and the local interstellar medium,
(ii) the details of the interaction between the solar and the so-called interstellar wind,
(iii) the global properties of the termination shock and the heliopause, and
(iv) the transport of suprathermal particles.
Due to the expertise of the IBEX team participants and the invited international scientists, that ranges from theory and numerical modelling to `remote' observations and in-situ measurements, the workshop will cover all aspects of these research topics.
The participation in the workshop is by invitation only.
