Call for UK Solar Physics Session Proposals

UK Solar Physics meeting

jointly with RAS NAM and MIST

Glasgow, April 12th – 16th 2010

On behalf of the UK Solar Physics Organising Committee we would like to invite from the Solar Physics community nominations for parallel session themes for next year’s meeting. The SOC also particularly welcomes proposals for themes that are regarded as timely or relating to current or upcoming missions. Proposals are welcomed for any topic or research area considered relevant to Solar and Heliospheric Physics. Particularly welcomed are joint UKSP with NAM or MIST or both sessions, which are likely to have broad cross-community appeal. The NAM/UKSP/MIST 2010 programme will include slots for up to 42 parallel sessions, each of 90 minutes’ duration, with further sessions in the programme dedicated for poster viewing.

At this stage the following information

is requested by email to
