“Scintillating Science: Cutting-Edge Science Achieved Through the Observations of Radio Scintillation” Workshop – Final Announcement

Dear Colleagues.

Not enough scintillating science in your life?

This is our FINAL official announcement for our upcoming “Scintillating Science: Cutting-Edge Science Achieved Through the Observations of Radio Scintillation” focussed/specialist workshop to be held in Hermanus (near Cape Town), South Africa, 15-19 July 2019. This is a great location for an exciting multi-faceted topic and time to get an insight into other aspects of scintillation.

Thus, the workshop will cover all aspects of scintillation from the science (including all the domains in which it can be applied, e.g. ionosphere, heliosphere, interstellar) through to engineering concepts/requirements including all aspects of its theory/modelling. More-detailed themes are being updated on the workshop website before the end of this week. In addition, we are in the process of finalising our invited and scene-setting speakers.

We have EXTENDED the late registration to Friday 14th June 2019 at 16:00UT and also the abstract registration to the same. All the workshop information and links to the registration and abstract submission forms can be found on the workshop website here: https://tinyurl.com/scintillate-july along with further information about the scope of the workshop and local information.

Best wishes on behalf of the workshop SOC and LOC,
