2018中法“起源”实验室双边研讨会将于2018年11月在云南大学召开

2018 Sino-French "LIA-ORIGINS" Workshop will be held at Yunnan University

由云南大学中国西南天文研究所、中国科学院国家天文台和云南天文台共同承办的2018中国-法国“起源”实验室双边研讨会将于2018年11月2日－5日在云南大学召开。会议主题为“From First Epochs of Matter and Galaxy Formation to Extraterrestrial Life”。

理解宇宙起源与演化是现代科学研究的终极目标，其中天文学研究通过“看”和“听”苍穹深处传来的信息而成为实现这一目标不可或缺的组成部分。今天，我们已进入多信使时代，可以通过不同手段探索宇宙从而回答诸多基本物理问题。

基于中国和法国在天体物理研究领域的合作协议，中法“起源”实验室于2009年1月成立，将于2018年结束。此次研讨会是最后一次基于该实验室的双边研讨会，目的是聚集来自中国和法国的天文学家，针对从早期宇宙到银河系，从宇宙大尺度结构到系外行星等不同前沿科学问题开展研讨。会议亦将就未来大型巡天观测和天文设备的发展展开讨论。

法国CNRS-INSU和巴黎天文台亦是此次研讨会的共同承担单位。会议详细信息请见 http://2018lia.csp. escience.cn.

         

From November 2nd to 5th, 2018, the 2018 Sino-French “LIA-ORIGINS” Workshop entitled “From First Epochs of Matter and Galaxy Formation to Extraterrestrial Life” will be held at Yunnan University.

Probing the origin and evolution of the Universe and all the matter therein has been the ultimate goal of modern science. By “seeing” and “hearing” messages from the cosmos, astronomical studies have played essential roles. We now have entered a multi-messenger era that allows us to investigate various fundamental problems from different angles.

This workshop will be the last one in the framework of the LIA ORIGINS, which was established in 2009, January 1st under the agreement between China and France in the field of Astrophysics. To mark this 10th anniversary of the LIA ORIGINS, this workshop aims to gather together scientists, mainly from China and France, to present recent developments in different aspects, from the very early Universe to present Milky Way, and from cosmic structures to extrasolar planets. Opportunities and challenges from future large surveys and instruments will also be discussed.

The workshop is organized and sponsored by SWIFAR, Yunnan University, Yunnan Observatories, and National Astronomical Observatories, Chinese Academy of Sciences. It is also co-sponsored by CNRS-INSU and Observatoire de Paris, France. Detailed information can be found in http://2018lia.csp.escience.cn.
