Zusammenfassung: Simulation has greatly advanced climate science, but not sufficiently to the profit of theory and understanding. How can simulation better advance climate science and what mathematical issues does this raise? Our hypothesis is that the development of climate science (i.e., theory and understanding) will be best served by focusing computational and intellectual resources on model and data hierarchies. By bringing together physicists, mathematicians, statisticians, engineers and climate-scientists, and focusing on several themes that reach across scales and scientific methodologies, our program will provide a framework for advancing our use of hierarchical methods in our attempt to understand the climate system.

There will be an active program of research activities, seminars and workshops throughout the March 8 - June 11, 2010 period and core participants will be in residence at IPAM for fourteen weeks. The program will open with tutorials, and will be punctuated by four major workshops and a culminating workshop.

Zusammenfassung: The School is devoted to the science and technology of Nanophotonics, with particular attention to the materials and technologies which have made possible the most significant advances in this area. Introductory lectures and advanced seminars will make the participants familiar with different aspects of today's photonics nanoworld and their applications.

Zusammenfassung: Gamma-Ray Bursts (GRBs), the most powerful explosions since the formation of the Universe, are unique cosmic events. Lasting from a few milliseconds to several minutes, they shine hundreds of times brighter than a typical supernova, the ultimate end of a massive star, and about a million trillion times as bright as the Sun. There is roughly a GRB detection once a day from wholly random sky directions. It is now widely accepted that GRBs are produced when a massive star undergoes core collapse or when two compact objects merge (e.g. neutron star - neutron star, black hole - neutron star). Due to the extreme luminosity of the multi-wavelength emission, they are now considered as one of the best ways to probe the dawn of the Universe.

An international school aimed at improving our knowledge of the GRB phenomena will take place in Cargèse in May 2010. Other topics to be covered are the unveiling of the nature of the early Universe and the preparation of the next generation of dedicated instruments. The school will be open to the entire scientific community. The school will be based primarily on in-depth lectures, with the remaining time available for shorter contributions from participants.

Zusammenfassung: Gravitational wave astronomy will reveal hidden dynamics in the universe.  This emerging field arises from solutions to Einstein's equations of general relativity and has the potential to uncover new physics.  The Center for Gravitational Wave Astronomy (CGWA) at the Univeristy of Texas at Brownsville (UTB) has successfully conducted a two-week summer school for the past five years in order to expose students to gravitational wave astronomy.    Some of the world's leading experts in this field will instruct a select group of approximately 25 advanced undergraduate and graduate students during the summer school.

Zusammenfassung: The purpose of the school is to provide opportunity to gain practical observationnal experience at the telescope, in observatories with state of the art instrumentation. To this effect, the school proposes tutorial observations in small groups of 4 or 5 students, under the guidance of an experienced observer, centered around a small research project and going through all steps of a standard observing program. Some introductory and complementary lectures will be given by experts in the field.

Zusammenfassung: The meeting will cover areas in nuclear physics, particle physics, astrophysics and cosmology. The program is coherent with nuclei being the central object that connects all items of the program: Exotic nuclei, Nuclear Astrophysics, Neutrino physics, Astroparticle physics. First week will have a school format, second week that of a conference. It is the 23rd edition of a Carpathian school, and the 3rd with the same title, following CSSP05 and CSSP07.

This is an external activity of ICTP, Trieste.

Zusammenfassung: The aim of this school is to gather leading experts in quantum optics and nanophotonics to give lectures. These lectures will lead motivated graduate students and promising post doctoral fellows from basic concepts to the most challenging problems in cutting edge research.

Zusammenfassung: The school will be at the Reactor Institute Delft from 28th of June til the 2nd of July. Lectures and hands on experiments will be done at the polarised neutron instruments.

Zusammenfassung: The scientific aim of this school is to show how the new generation of data will allow to look for signatures characterizing the models of the early universe. The school will cover the physics of the cosmic microwave background, with particular emphasis on new aspects which are the most relevant to the confrontation of theories with observations. In particular :

Zusammenfassung: The aim of the Summer School is to provide an introduction to the fundamental principles of plasma physics, together with a broad understanding of its fields of application.

Zusammenfassung: The shell structure of atoms, underlying the periodic table, was explained with the advent of quantum physics. The study of nuclear stabilities led to the formulation of the nuclear shell model in 1949. And twenty-five years ago the electronic shell structure of metal nanoclusters was discovered. The aim of the School is to highlight the unity of physical principles that manifest themselves in systems as diverse as atoms, nuclei, clusters, confined quantum gases, nanostructures, quantum dots, nanowires. These areas are widely different in terms of energy scales and other physical characteristics, but their properties are strongly influenced by the quantization of motion of their constituent fermions. Furthermore, these quantum-scale phenomena have important practical implications. It is hoped that the diversity and the underlying universality of the physics presented at the School will make it rewardingly interdisciplinary and synergistic.

Zusammenfassung: This two-week-long school will provide an interactive experience with hands-on research involving tabletop experiments with real-time computer data acquisition and associated computational modeling. This school is mainly aimed at providing hands-on tools in Complexity Science to Africans.

Scientists active in the field will introduce the participants into the basic principles of quantum coherent spin physics, and the fast developments of the field in the last 5-10 years. The latest developments, current trends, and open problems will be discussed.

The University of Hamburg is one of the leading international centers in micro- and nanostructure research. In several courses you will get a compact insight into the theoretical principles, experimental methods, simulation of real structures, and topical areas of micro- and nanostructure research. The lectures will be complemented by laboratory visits and computer exercises. Invited internationally recognized scientists will present their research and discuss current topics with you. You can present your own research results in a poster session and discuss them with Ph. D. students from the University of Hamburg. Two excursions to the Deutsches Elektronen-Synchrotron (DESY) and a company will complement the scientific program. This summer school particularly addresses advanced students with a Bachelor's degree, Vordiplom, or equivalent, Diplom candidates and Master's students.

The summer school will take place in the city center of Hamburg, Germany's second-largest city. The cultural program includes a sightseeing tour and a harbor tour as well as a day trip to the old Hanseatic city of Lüneburg.
