STFC Introductory Solar System Plasmas Summer School
16 – 21 September 2012
Armagh Observatory
STFC Courses in Solar System Plasmas have played an important part in the
early training of solar, heliospheric, magnetospheric and ionospheric
physicists since the 1980s. The Introductory course, as well as providing a
grounding in the theory and the most recent observations relevant to their
fields, allows new PhD students and other participants to interact
scientifically with each other and with the lecturers, thus strengthening the
field as a whole – particularly in the UK. We wish to continue this excellent
tradition by hosting the next introductory summer school in Solar System
Plasmas at Armagh Observatory. The Observatory has expertise in both solar and
solar-terrestrial observations and theory as well as solar system dynamics.
The objective is to provide the training necessary to produce inter-
disciplinary scientists who can work effectively in teams at the interfaces
between different science areas.
