DFG Priority Program 1573
Physics of the Interstellar Medium
Splinter session
Annual Meeting of the Astronomische Gesellschaft,
Hamburg, September 24-28, 2012
The DFG priority programme 1573 "The Physics of the Interstellar Medium" was newly established at the end of 2011 and was ment
to focus the effort of the German research community in the field of the interstellar medium. The aim of this splinter session
is to start a series of meetings to bring together scientists who address similar problems of ISM research with various techniques:
observations, laboratory experiments and simulations. We will reserve ample time for discussion on how to combine these various
findings in order to create a consistent picture of the most important physical processes of the turbulent ISM.
If you have any questions, please contact:
Dates:
Tuesday, September 25, 14:15 to 18:15
Wednesday, September 26, 14:15 to 18:15
