First Announcement
Dear Colleagues,
We are pleased to announce the AGU Chapman Conference: Particle Dynamics in the Earth’s Radiation Belts, to be held 4÷9 March 2018 in Cascais, Portugal at the "Quinta da Marinha" Resort Hotel.
All members of the science community are welcome and encouraged to attend this meeting. For details regarding registration and abstract submission, including hotel information, please explore the meeting website.
Abstracts will be solicited on radiation belt theory, observation, modeling, and experiment, with an emphasis on the five major science themes:
(1) Particle Acceleration and Transport
(2) Particle Loss
(3) Role of Nonlinear Processes
(4) New Radiation Belt Modeling Capabilities and the Quantification of Model Uncertainties
(5) Laboratory Plasma Experiments, as they relate to particle dynamics in the Earth’s radiation belts
Abstract notifications will be sent 1 Nov 2017 and the conference size will be capped at 120 participants, including students. We anticipate that partial student travel support will be available (details will be posted at the conference website when they are finalized).
