“Gravitational Microlensing – 101 years from theory to practice”
Qatar National Convention Centre (QNCC), 10-13 Feb 2013
Abstract submission (deadline: 10 Jan 2013)
We invite abstract submissions for contributed talks and posters that cover the full spectrum of astrophysical applications of gravitational microlensing, as well as related techniques and technologies, and in particular matching the following thematic sessions:
1/B Two decades of microlensing surveys
1/C Planets
1/D Stellar Atmospheres
2/A Stellar mass function, binarity, and galactic structure
2/B Brown dwarfs
2/C Neutron stars and black holes
2/D Quasar microlensing
3/A Large all-sky surveys
3/B Data management and the virtual observatory
3/C Automated robotic-telescope networks
3/D The synergy of space- and ground-based observations
4/A Lucky imaging
4/B Engaging the public
0 Other
The current division and time allocations are only indicative, and the exact schedule will be worked out by the SOC on the basis of the received submissions. Suggestions for presentations beyond the session themes can be submitted as 'Other'. We expect to have 26 slots available for contributed talks (providing opportunities similar to those at the most recent microlensing workshops), and will offer poster space generously.
You will need to register for the conference by the abstract submission deadline in order for your submission to be considered.
