Résumé: The main goals are to assess our current knowledge of solar activity to prepare for observations of the new major activity expected from the beginning of Carrington Cycle 24, and to encourage effective observations of this activity.

Résumé: This year's topics include the sun, solar system, extra solar planets, substellar companions; stellar Evolution, stellar Populations; stellar atmospheres, Winds; circumstellar disks, and binary stellar systems, x-ray binaries.

Résumé: The conference, to be held at the Aspen Center for Physics, will focus on the latest developments in experimental and theoretical efforts to understand the nature of Dark Energy and Dark Matter and the crucial issue of how current and upcoming precision experiments will directly and indirectly measure their properties.

Key aspects of the meeting will be discussions on synergies between direct and indirect, and terrestrial and astrophysical dark matter detection, and how complementary observational approaches could distinguish between dark energy theories, for example those with gravity and particle based origins.

The aim of this conference is to bring together theorists and experimentalists, from astrophysics and particle physics, to discuss new approaches to understanding the origins of the dark sector - exposing experimentalists to the latest theoretical ideas, and giving theorists a perspective on what is experimentally achievable.

Résumé: Goal of this meeting is to bring together observers and theoreticians working in magnetar astrophysics in a conference that will focus on breakthrough research linking astronomy, particle and condensed matter physics.

Résumé: The symposium will bring together experts in relativistic celestial mechanics, relativity tests, astrometry, geodesy, and like fields.

Résumé: The annual DDA meeting brings together top researchers in astronomy, astrophysics, planetary science, and astrodynamics for in-depth and stimulating discussions and talks on all aspects in the space sciences.

Résumé: This school continues the tradition of past NNPSSs. The NNPSS is distinctively different from many other schools in that it provides lectures and activities that cover the entire field of contemporary nuclear physics, ranging from QCD and the structure of the nucleon, over the reactions and structure of nuclei, to astrophysics. Particular attention is being paid to fostering interactions between students and lecturers as well as among the students that tend to come from all areas of nuclear science. This not only helps to broaden the perspective of the new generation but also aids in the formation of a community spirit within the field. The school can accommodate 50 students typically within 1-2 years either side of earning a PhD.

Michigan State University is the site of the National Superconducting Cyclotron Laboratory, the nations premier rare isotope facility, the Mesoscopic Theory Center, and is part of the Joint Institute for Nuclear Astrophysics, and the UNEDF SciDAC Collaboration in nuclear theory.
