We intend to start a cycle of events to be held every few years that will bring excellent researchers from all around the world to Poland for a science meeting organized in the spirit of Juszkiewicz. The meeting will include a mixture of young and senior researchers and will be focussed on cutting-edge problems and open questions in modern cosmology, extragalactic astronomy and high-energy astrophysics. This year's inaugural edition of the symposium will be held in Warsaw from 24 to 28 August 2015. More information will be provided soon. Tentative list of topics: - large-scale structure of the Universe - CMB/early Universe/inflation - galaxy clustering/velocity data - Milky Way and Local Group - modified gravity/ Dark Energy - alternative dark matter models - averaged non-linearities (inhomogeneous GR cosmology) - galaxy formation (including active galactic nuclei and supermassive black holes) We expect to open the registration in early April.

This year the conference is organised jointly by the University of Silesia and the Polish Physical Society. The scope of the conference: The heavy boson signal discovery at LHC in 2012 and its properties found to be in agreement with the Standard Model Higgs particle put us in a strange position. On one hand all existing laboratory experiments are in agreement with Standard Model, with the exception of a few ones where a tension at a level of three standard deviations is observed. On the other hand the existence of dark matter, the baryon-anti-baryon asymmetry etc. show that we need a model going beyond the standard one. Yet, there is no guideline coming from laboratory experiments, how to build such a model. To find the right path, a wide effort is needed pushing for new particles discoveries (may be we will see something during the next LHC run), better precision in laboratory tests and closer cross links between particle physics and astrophysics. We will address all these issues during the conference. The discussion is intended to be an important part of the talks. The conference will bring together physicists from a variety of backgrounds, both young scientists at post-doctoral level and senior scientists. The conference is planned to take place in Ustron - a small town located in Beskidy Mountains in the southern part of Poland. Accommodation and lectures will be arranged in the same place providing further opportunities for all participants to have informal discussions during leisure time and strengthening personal contacts. Main Topics: Tests of the Standard Model and its extensions at LHC and other accelerator experiments. New methods and developments in loop calculations and Monte Carlo generators. Neutrino physics and astrophysics. Cosmology and astrophysics and their links with building and testing of the extensions of the Standard Model. Dates: from 13 September 2015 10:00 to 18 September 2015 20:00 Timezone: Europe/Warsaw Location: Ustroń Additional info: http://indico.if.us.edu.pl/event/us2015 ======================================================================

Drifting through the Cosmic Web, 6-11.VII.2015 @Aix-en-Provence, France
by Boud Roukema 13 Jan '15

13 Jan '15

The goal of this conference is to gather theorists, simulators and observers to brainstorm over the structure of the cosmic web and its influence on galaxy properties. In particular we wish to address the following points: -our theoretical understanding of the cosmic web, its dynamics and evolution (3D structure of the dark matter field, impact of the nature of dark matter on structure formation, mechanism of acquisition of angular momentum of collapsed structures, the dynamics and persistence of cold streams); - the characterization of the components of the cosmic web, i.e. nodes, filaments, walls and voids: what are the different techniques to extract them from simulations and observations? - Numerical predictions and observational signatures of the influence of the cosmic web on galaxy properties (cold streams, cosmic gas accretion as regulator of star-formation and galaxy growth, CGM physics, feedback, metal enrichment); - Challenges: 3D spectroscopy, HI surveys, reconstruction of density fields from galaxy surveys, zoom-in techniques in simulation. Questions and comments should be sent to: aix2015 lam.fr Web site available here : http://aix2015.lam.fr/

Otoz 15 wrzesnia mamy termin skladania listow intencyjnych na misje M4 ESA. Zapadla decyzja - CoRE+ zamierza taki list zlozyc (a potem wlasciwy propozal w styczniu). Aktualnie potrzebna jest w zwiazku z tym: a) lista polskich instytutow, ktore bylyby sklonne sie w misje zaangazowac b) lista "kluczowych osob", ktore by mialy te instytucje reprezentowac Dajcie mi prosze znac do wtorku, czy jestescie zainteresowani - w imieniu Waszych instytucji i wlasnym. Trzeba bedzie sie nastepnie zastanowic, na jaki wklad hardware'owy mamy szanse i jak mozna by go sfinansowac, ale to krok kolejny. Na poczatek potrzebne mi Wasze deklaracje (a jesli kogos pominelam, to tez prosze przypomnijcie!). Pozdrowienia, Agnieszka

11:30 **TOMORROW** Wed 30 May @CAMK-Wawa: Doug Simons (CFHT) - new telescope MSE
by Boud Roukema 29 Apr '14

29 Apr '14

******************* The meeting with the Directore of the Canada-French Hawaii Telescope May 30th, 11:30, CAMK The present director of the CFHT (Canada-French Hawaii Telescope), Doug Simons, and the science director of CFHT, Daniel Devost will visit CAMK with the aim to show the plans of constructing a new telescope - Maunakea Spectroscopic Explorer (MSE, earlier nCFHT, see: http://www.ngcfht.org/[www.ngcfht.org]). MSE will be a 10 m telescope devoted to multiobject spectroscopy, with planned repeated observations of a give field of view. This gives the possibility to study the variability of weak sources - mostly galaxies, but also stars and the interstellar/intergalactic medium. The meeting will be held at CAMK, May 30th, most likely at 11:30. If you are interested, please contact us (bcz camk.edu.pl). Polish Astronomical Society is the co-organizer of the meeting. Michał Chodorowski Bożena Czerny Agnieszka Pollo ********************** Spotkanie z Dyrektorami Canada-French Hawaii Telescope 30 maja, 11:30, CAMK, Warszawa 30 maja będą w Polsce z wizytą aktualny dyrektor CFHT (Canada-French Hawaii Telescope), Doug Simons, oraz dyrektor naukowy CFHT, Daniel Devost, żeby opowiedzieć nam o planach nowego planowanego teleskopu - Maunakea Spectroscopic Explorer (MSE, wcześniej nCFHT, więcej informacji: http://www.ngcfht.org/[www.ngcfht.org]). MSE ma być 10 m teleskopem przeznaczonym do spektroskopii wieloobiektowej, na dużych obszarach nieba, z opcją prowadzenia przeglądów spektroskopowych powtarzanych w niedługich odstępach czasu (czyli daje możliwości badania zmienności widmowej słabych źródeł - przede wszystkim galaktyk, ale również gwiazd i materii międzygwiazdowej/międzygalaktycznej). Spotkanie odbędzie się prawdopodobnie 30 maja o godz. 11:30 w CAMK (możliwe zmiany). Zainteresowanych prosimy o kontakt (bcz camk.edu.pl). Spotkaniu patronuje PTA.
