Dear Colleagues,
This is a brief announcement that the workshop registration is now open,
http://www.astro.gla.ac.uk/rhessi11/
so please register and please pass this on to others who may be interested.
Location/dates/ timetable
-------------------
The meeting will be held in the School of Physics and Astronomy, Kelvin
Building, University of Glasgow [founded 1451 - past Professors include
Alexander Wilson (Wilson Effect), James Watt, Lord Kelvin, and Peter
Sweet.
The welcome reception with drinks/snacks will be organised near the
workshop venue on April 3, 2011 at 6pm. The workshop will start on
Monday (April 4) at 9am and will be finished on Thursday (April 7) at 5 pm.
The general timetable is available here:

The registration fee (covering reception, workshop dinner and coffee
breaks/refreshments)
Standard fee 195 GBP
Student fee 120 GBP
Glasgow Travel and Accommodation
--------------------------------
The city airport is served by several transatlantic carriers and several
direct European connections while nearby Prestwick supports various
transatlantic charter companies. There are fast and frequent direct air,
rail, and coach
services to London, Manchester and other UK destinations. Early April
precedes the main holiday and conference season, so accommodation should
be fairly readily available in all price ranges. A list of hotels and
B&Bs within walking distance and booking information, plus local travel
and tourism information is available at the webpage.

Meeting Arrangements
--------------------
RHESSI XI will continue the series of RHESSI workshops but it also marks
40 years since the publication of Prof. John Brown's thick-target model
paper which has since been the standard approach to interpret solar
flare hard X-ray spectra.
The workshop will focus on topics/problems related to the understanding
of energetic particles in solar flares. The workshop will have five
groups covering a wide range of topics broadly related to thick-target
model interpretation of solar flares. Up to three working group sessions
will be run in parallel. The group topics have been designed with
distinct agendas but also with some overlap to facilitate joint
sessions. Considerable cross team flux, short of chaos, will be encouraged.
All groups encourage contributions on theory, simulations, observations
and RHESSI instrumental/software issue. We discourage contributions
unrelated to the working group agendas.

UCL-MSSL is pleased to announce a new Hinode EIS science nugget to
be released on January 15, 2011.
The nugget looks at the sensitivity performance of EIS since the launch
of Hinode, and is written by Dr. George Doschek.
http://msslxr.mssl.ucl.ac.uk:8080/SolarB/eisnuggets.jsp
Next month's nugget is entitled "Determining the source of a magnetic
cloud using a velocity difference method".
EIS nuggets are published on the 1st of every month and we welcome
contributions from the community. Please contact Deb Baker if
you are interested.
