hi cosmo-pl, Here are two 2014 FR-based cosmo meetings that you might find interesting. Announcement "3." below is in French, but if you paste the URL into a browser, you'll see that the program looks like it will very likely be in English. One PL-based participant is already listed in the preliminary program. pozdr Boud ---------- Forwarded message ---------- > Date: Mon, 25 Nov 2013 12:52:10 +0100 > From: Secrétariat SF2A > Message SF2A No 584 - 25/11/13 > Cliquez sur ce lien si le message ne s'affiche pas correctement: > http://www.sf2a.eu/?article508 --------------------------------------------------------------------------- 3.

Il a pour objectif de rassembler des spécialistes en physique des particules, astrophysique et cosmologie pour débattre sur des problèmes émergents en vue de perspectives innovantes. Il se singularise des ateliers traditionnels par le fait que le programme est précisé seulement une semaine avant sa tenue, sur la base des conférences proposées par les participants. Le nombre de participants n'excède pas 30 et le nombre d'exposés est choisi de sorte à favoriser les échanges.

IAUS306: statistical challenges in 21st century cosmology - 26-29 mai 2014, Lisbonne --------------------------------------------------------------------------- The IAU Symposium 306 on Statistical Challenges in 21st Century Cosmology will take place in Lisbon, Portugal from 26-29 May 2014, with a tutorial day on 25 May. Full exploitation of the very large surveys of the Cosmic Microwave Background, Large-Scale Structure, weak gravitational lensing and future 21cm surveys will require use of the best statistical techniques to answer the major cosmological questions of the 21st century, such as the nature of Dark Energy and gravity. Thus it is timely to emphasise the importance of inference in cosmology, and to promote dialogue between astronomers and statisticians. This has been recognized by the creation of the IAU Working Group in Astrostatistics and Astroinformatics in 2012. IAU Symposium 306 will be devoted to problems of inference in cosmology, from data processing to methods and model selection, and will have an important element of cross-disciplinary involvement from the statistics communities. You are invited to submit an abstract for a contributed talk or poster for the meeting, via the meeting website (http://sccc21.sim.ul.pt). The deadline for abstract submission is 21st March 2014. Full information on the scientific rationale, programme, proceedings, critical dates, and local arrangements will be on the symposium web site. Transmis par Alberto Krone-Martins

The topics of the session include but are not limited to: - mathematical aspects of classical general relativity theory and its modifications, - quantum properties of the gravitational interaction, - cosmological models in modified theories of gravity and their observational consequences. The session is dedicated to the centenary of Professor Harald Keres (1912-2010) who initiated studies in general relativity in Estonia. As our current research aims at explaining dark energy with modifications that extend Einstein's theory, we are especially looking forward for talks on this and related topics. The Tallinn conference is a satellite meeting to MG13, the Marcel Grossmann Meeting on General Relativity, held on 1-7 July 2012 in Stockholm, conveniently just across the Baltic sea. For more information and registration please visit the website http://www.agmp.eu/qqq/ Looking forward to meet you in Tallinn, Best regards, Piret Kuusk, Organizer Institute of Physics, University of Tartu, Estonia Phone: +372 7374621, Fax: +372 7383033 E-mail: piret fi tartu ee

Astronomical Data Analysis 7th conf, 14-18 May 2012, Cargese, Corsica, France

hi cosmo-pl, The following should be a good conference for almost anyone doing observational work. People with teaching duties would need to get replacements for the week of the conference. pozdr boud > ---------- Forwarded message ---------- > Date: Tue, 27 Dec 2011 10:28:56 +0100 > From: SF2A... > Message SF2A No 495 - 27/12/11 > > Sur le web: http://www.sf2a.asso.fr/spip.php?rubrique7 > http://www.sf2a.asso.fr/spip.php?article364 --------------------------------------------------------------------------- 2. Astronomical Data Analysis (ADA) - 7th conference, 14-18 May 2012, Cargese, Corsica, France --------------------------------------------------------------------------- Held regularly since 2001, the ADA conference series is focused on algorithms and information extraction from astrophysical data sets. The conference program includes keynote, invited and contributed talks, as well as posters. This conference series has been characterized by a range of innovative themes, including multiscale geometric transforms such as the curvelet transform, compressed sensing and clustering in cosmology, while at the same time remaining closely linked to front-line open problems and issues in astrophysics and cosmology. This year the conference will be proceded by a full week of Tutorials (7 - 11 May 2012) on various topics of advanced data processing. During ADA-VII one session will be dedicated to advanced algorithms in the astronomical project pipeline. Other sessions will include asteroseismology, exoplanet detection, large scale structures (weak lensing, galaxy catalogs), CMB (source separation, polarization), restoration (map-making, deconvolution, modeling), hyperspectral data analysis, compressed sensing. The ADA conference is a strongly interdisciplinary conference allowing researchers coming from different fields to interact. We generally have 5 or 6 keynote speakers, who are leaders in their respective fields, half being astronomers and the other half being mathematicians, statisticians or electrical engineering researchers. Each session has at least one invited speaker, and half of the talks are contributed talks. A full poster session is included in the program, where each researcher with a poster will have a 2 minutes oral talk, allowing for a presentation of himself or herself, presentation of results and an invitation to view the poster. Note: The Cargese conference center can host 80 participants during the conference week and 40 participants during the tutorial week. For more details, please visite the conference website : http://ada7.cosmostat.org/ Pre-registration is open at this URL : http://dr12.azur-colloque.cnrs.fr/pre-inscription.php?colloque=106 Contact: ada7.cargese gmail.com.
