2nd Metis Science Meeting

27 Jan 2025, 14:00 → 29 Jan 2025, 18:00 Europe/Rome

Auditorium nazionale

This meeting is the second of a series of workshops dedicated to the scientific sharing of Metis data to increase the collaborations. 

The meeting follows the format of the first Metis Science Meeting, held in Urbino last June, aiming at providing an informal setting for presenting and discussing unpublished work and scientific ideas, with ample time allocated for discussion. The meeting will take place in presence only.

In this second meeting, a full-day session is dedicated to other space-borne and ground-based facilities and instruments with a significant involvement of that the Italian Solar Physics and Heliophysics community. The goal is to encourage informal discussions on potential collaborative activities across these projects. We welcome the presentation of science case studies that could benefit from coordinated observations, with an emphasis on using state-of-the-art models, machine learning/AI techniques, and high-performance computing.
