Rationale
Stellar evolution school for the PhD students from the MWGaiaDN network. The school is also open to a limited number of participants (20) from outside the network.
The goal is to address next decade challenges on stellar evolution and pulsation through synergies between advances in theory, multi-dimensional modelling, new observational technologies and data including the on-going and near future spectroscopic, photometric, astrometric and asteroseismic surveys (Gaia, WEAVE, 4MOST, LSST, TESS, PLATO)
The school programme consists of:
- Lectures on stellar evolution, Gaia variable catalogues, asteroseismology, stellar surveys
- Turorials on deriving stellar parameters using asteroseismology
- Tutorials on the use of stellar models
- During the conference sessions participants will work in teams on short scientific projects.
More details on the programme can be found in the attached programme notes below.
Participants should make their own travel and accommodation arrangements. There is no registration fee for this school. MWGaiaDN covers the costs for the venue and also for the catering (lunches, coffee/tea) throughout the event.
MWGaiaDN is a Horizon Europe Marie Skłodowska-Curie Actions Doctoral Network funded under grant agreement no. 101072454.
