About the Meeting
This conference aims to bring together scientists to review and discuss the current status of research on Alfvén waves in space plasmas, including the solar atmosphere, the solar wind, planetary magnetospheres and ionospheres, and laboratory plasmas (if relevant to space plasmas). Participants will have the opportunity to interact and exchange knowledge/ideas with scientists from the “other” communities in a collegial setting.
Who should attend
Abstract Themes
The overarching themes of Alfvén wave research, regardless of what system they occur in, are:
- Alfvén wave generation mechanisms
- Alfvén wave propagation and coupling
- Alfvén wave interactions with plasma and energetic particles
- Alfvén wave applications in solar system plasmas
These themes will form the structure of the conference.
Format Overview
The scientific part of this conference will span four days (Monday through Thursday) plus Sunday afternoon (before the scientific part) for a welcome reception and Friday for an optional sightseeing tour. A banquet dinner is planned for Thursday evening.
The meeting will be comprised of oral and poster sessions, breakout sessions, and summary discussions. In addition, there will be several tutorials early on, providing overviews of Alfvén wave research as it relates to specific space regions. This is intended to benefit those participants working on Alfvén wave research in other regions than presented in the tutorial.
The schedule will be thematically divided into four topics. Emphasis will be put on mixing the sessions with talks on Alfvén waves in various plasma regimes to encourage cross-disciplinary discussions.
Abstract submission policies
Abstract submissions are now open. The abstract submission deadline is 15 February 2023. You are not required to be an AGU member to submit an abstract. There is no fee for submissions.
Abstracts must focus on scientific results or their application. The Program Committee may decline abstracts with other focuses.
By submitting an abstract, you are obligated to give a presentation in the designated manner assigned by the Program Committee. Your submission also grants AGU permission to publish the abstract. You cannot request oral presentations, although you may request a poster presentation.
Abstract submission guidelines
- Your abstract title should be no more than 300 characters and the abstract text must be less than 2000 characters. The character limit includes punctuation, but not spacing.
- In lieu of adding the names of individual team members, you may reference a research team in the ‘Title of Team’ field during the submission process.
- You may add one table or image to your submission. If you would like to include multiple images, you must combine the images and save them as one file. We prefer image files be .jpg, however, .png, and .gif are also supported file types.
- Submissions can be submitted and edited at any time up until the abstract submission deadline.
