are excited to open registration for the workshop "Multi-wavelength
follow-up of fast radio bursts in the era of routine (sub)arcsecond
localizations" that will be held <b>2023 April 25-26</b> in Toronto, Canada.<br></div><div class="gmail_default" style="font-family:arial,helvetica,sans-serif"><br></div><div class="gmail_default" style="font-family:arial,helvetica,sans-serif">With
new facilities coming online or being upgraded in the next few years
(e.g., DSA-110, the coherent-search upgrade to CRAFT, CHIME/FRB
Outriggers) we will start getting hundreds of (sub)arcsecond
localizations of fast radio bursts (FRBs) per year. It will likely not
be feasible to acquire telescope time to get, e.g., spectroscopic
redshifts of all host galaxies or take deep X-ray observations of all
nearby sources. It is thus key to strategize with the full astronomy
community interested in these sources. This workshop, organized by the
CHIME/FRB Collaboration and the Dunlap Institute for Astronomy &
Astrophysics, will bring together experts on FRB localization and
multi-wavelength followup of transients as well as those interested in
using FRBs with redshifts as probes. In this workshop we will discuss
current and future capabilities of instruments and come up with
strategies to ensure that all scientific goals are met without
oversubscribing telescope time.<br><br>This will be a two-day meeting with invited plenary talks in the morning and discussions in smaller groups in the afternoon.</div><div class="gmail_default" style="font-family:arial,helvetica,sans-serif"><br></div><div class="gmail_default" style="font-family:arial,helvetica,sans-serif">Website: <a href="https://www.dunlap.utoronto.ca/frb-followup-workshop/">https://www.dunlap.utoronto.ca/frb-followup-workshop/</a></div><div class="gmail_default" style="font-family:arial,helvetica,sans-serif"><br></div><div class="gmail_default" style="font-family:arial,helvetica,sans-serif">Registration: <a href="https://forms.gle/g69QTUKm47Qkm7Wx6">https://forms.gle/g69QTUKm47Qkm7Wx6</a> (deadline: 2023 March 31)</div><div class="gmail_default" style="font-family:arial,helvetica,sans-serif"><br></div><div class="gmail_default" style="font-family:arial,helvetica,sans-serif">SOC: <br></div><div class="gmail_default" style="font-family:arial,helvetica,sans-serif">Jane Kaczmarek (DRAO→CSIRO)</div><div class="gmail_default" style="font-family:arial,helvetica,sans-serif">Adam Lanman (McGill)</div><div class="gmail_default" style="font-family:arial,helvetica,sans-serif">Kenzie Nimmo (MIT)</div><div class="gmail_default" style="font-family:arial,helvetica,sans-serif">Ziggy Pleunis (chair; UofT)</div><div class="gmail_default" style="font-family:arial,helvetica,sans-serif">Paul Scholz (UofT)</div><div class="gmail_default" style="font-family:arial,helvetica,sans-serif"><br></div><div class="gmail_default" style="font-family:arial,helvetica,sans-serif">LOC: <br></div><div class="gmail_default" style="font-family:arial,helvetica,sans-serif">Amanda Cook (UofT)</div><div class="gmail_default" style="font-family:arial,helvetica,sans-serif">Kara Manovich (UofT)</div><div class="gmail_default" style="font-family:arial,helvetica,sans-serif">Ayush Pandhi (UofT)</div><div class="gmail_default" style="font-family:arial,helvetica,sans-serif">Ziggy Pleunis (chair; UofT)</div><div class="gmail_default" style="font-family:arial,helvetica,sans-serif">Paul Scholz (UofT)<br><br>Please forward this announcement to anyone who might be interested.</div><div class="gmail_default" style="font-family:arial,helvetica,sans-serif"><br></div><div class="gmail_default" style="font-family:arial,helvetica,sans-serif">Kind regards,</div><div class="gmail_default" style="font-family:arial,helvetica,sans-serif"><br></div><div class="gmail_default" style="font-family:arial,helvetica,sans-serif">Ziggy Pleunis</div><div class="gmail_default" style="font-family:arial,helvetica,sans-serif">on behalf of the SOC and LOC<br><a href="mailto:frb_followup_workshop@dunlap.utoronto.ca">frb_followup_workshop@dunlap.utoronto.ca</a></div></div></div>
