Frequently Asked Questions
What is the focus of the symposium?
The symposium will address critical knowledge gaps in solar and stellar physics, leveraging recent advancements and fostering collaboration between traditionally independent solar and stellar communities. This event aims to strategically align with pivotal advancements in solar missions and ground-based instrumentation, offering a timely platform for knowledge exchange.
Who is organizing the symposium?
The symposium is organized by a Scientific Organizing Committee comprising experts from renowned institutions worldwide. This ensures a diverse and comprehensive exploration of multi-scale solar and stellar activity.
What themes will the symposium cover?
The programme will cover a broad range of themes including:
Solar and Stellar Energy Release Processes, Quasi-Periodic Pulsations, Radio Bursts,
Advancements in Solar and Stellar Multi-Messenger Coronal Seismology, Fine Structures in Coronal Plasmas, Threads, Plumes, Rain, Jets, Multi-Thermal Diagnostics,
Machine Learning in Solar and Stellar Coronal Research, Novel heating models, solar-stellar wind analogies, exoplanet impacts.
Where and when will the symposium take place?
The symposium will be held in Shenzhen, city known as the „Silicon Valley of China” due to its role as major hub for innovation and technology progress in South-East Asia. It is also well known for its pleasant climate and picturesque landscapes.
