Dear All

We are announcing an online science meeting on "Particle Acceleration in Solar Flares and the Plasma Universe" to be held during November 15-19, 2021.

This meeting is open to everyone who is interested in particle energization in space, solar, and astrophysical plasma environments. It is driven by the recent development of a next generation solar X-ray/gamma-ray mission named “PhoENiX” (to be proposed to JAXA for a launch slot in early 2030s). While this mission is designed to study particle acceleration and heating in solar flares, we wish to have interdisciplinary discussions because we believe the scientific results of the PhoENiX mission will make a significant impact not only on solar physics but also on space physics and astrophysics. Examples of invited talks include “multi-wavelength observations of solar flares”, “roles of magnetic reconnection in high-energy phenomena in different plasma environments”, and “theory and simulations of particle acceleration and fundamental plasma processes”.

The meeting will be held during November 15-19, 2021 as a virtual, online-only event. The deadline for the abstract is 23:59 JST on October 19, 2021. For more information, please check the workshop website: https://indico.ipmu.jp/event/395/

Best regards
Mitsuo (on behalf of SOC)

Scientific Organizing Committee:
Lindsay Glesener, Fan Guo, Tomoko Kawate, Dmitry Khangulyan, Säm Krucker, Noriyuki Narukage, Mitsuo Oka, Kathy Reeves, Taro Sakao, Tadayuki Takahashi, Yohko Tsuboi
