First Announcement
(Issue June 1, 2009)
Colleagues:
The arrangements for the 9th RHESSI workshop, to be held in Genoa, Italy from September 1-5, 2009 are now fairly well established. The scientific agenda for the workshop, as well as information on local arrangements, travel, etc. may be found on the workshop website at
http://www.dima.unige.it/~prato/rhessi09.htm
Some important notes:
1. In order to assist in the planning of this meeting, I strongly encourage you to register as soon as practicable, and also to provide a concise summary of the topic(s) you would like to discuss (or witness being discussed) at the workshop.
2. Note (http://www.dima.unige.it/~prato/rhessi09_file/Program.htm) that although there are four working groups, that will to some extent meet in parallel, no group is scheduled to meet all week long. Thus, you can readily participate in more than one group. (The final details of the group meeting schedule may change as the composition of the groups becomes clearer). For this reason, we ask that you select two groups in which you would like to participate, and to provide short descriptions of your proposed contribution to each group.
3. Summaries of the participant lists, with links to their proposed contributions, will be updated at
http://www.dima.unige.it/~prato/rhessi09_file/Participants.htm
as people register. We hope that this will encourage some pre-workshop activities/coordination that enhances the use of our time together in Genoa.
4. Two of the important pages (the arrangements to pay the registration fee:
http://www.dima.unige.it/~prato/rhessi09_file/Registration.htm
and the hotel booking form
http://www.dima.unige.it/~prato/rhessi09_file/Accommodation.htm
are password protected (they include bank details and non-public information on the ridiculously low hotel rates). The password will be sent to you very shortly in a second e-mail.
Questions about local arrangements, or about the website, should be addressed to Marco Prato at marco.prato@unimore.it, who has put in a highly commendable effort in assembling the information to date.
Finally, please feel free to forward the website address to colleagues who may be interested in participating, and I look forward to seeing you on the Italian Riviera!
