===================================================

IAU Symposium 363: Neutron Star Astrophysics at the Crossroads:

Magnetars and the Multimessenger Revolution -- 1st Announcement

===================================================

June 22nd - 26th, 2020

Gran Sasso Science Institute, L'Aquila, Italy



PROGRAMME

The 363st International Astronomical Union (IAU) Symposium will be held in
L'Aquila, Italy in June 2020. The symposium will focus on the astrophysical
implications of gravitational wave and electromagnetic observations of
neutron stars. It will discuss the status, perspectives and challenges in
the blossoming era of multi-messenger astronomy in order to build a
complete physical picture of neutron stars, both isolated and in binary
systems. It will explore the many facets of neutron stars, from magnetars
to extreme astrophysical phenomena, such as giant flares, gamma-ray bursts
and kilonovae. It will include discussions on next generation facilities
for multi-messenger astronomy and their associated science cases.



The symposium will bring together the most prominent specialists in neutron
star physics, magnetars, gamma-ray bursts, gravitational wave observations
and theory. It will represent a natural avenue to present and discuss the
latest transformative results of multi-messenger observations of neutron
stars. The symposium will be organized around a morning plenary session and
two parallel sessions in the afternoon. Plenary sessions are designed to
give a broad and interdisciplinary overview of neutron stars, their
gravitational wave and electromagnetic emission. The parallel sessions will
instead provide a deeper insight into specific questions on the physics of
magnetars on one side, and neutron stars as sources of gravitational waves,
kilonovae and gamma ray burst on the other.

The conference fee is 325,00 €  (275,00 € for undergraduate and PhD
students). It includes coffee breaks and lunches from Monday to Friday,
social dinner, on-line proceedings, and childcare. The late registration
fee (afterApril 15th) is 400,00 €. Please indicate when registering if you
would like to be considered for financial support. Funds are provided by
the IAU to support travel to the meeting to PhD students, early-career
researchers, and researchers from economically less privileged countries
who otherwise would be unable to attend the meeting.
