Astronomy in Focus XXXII : As Presented at the IAU XXXII General Assembly, 2024

Omtale

Astronomy in Focus presents selected contributions from the scientific Focus Meetings chosen to be held at IAU General Assemblies. This edition is for the XXXII General Assembly held in Cape Town, 6–15 August 2024. Focus Meetings are proposed by groups of scientists with an aim to promote cross-disciplinary interactions while maintaining a well-defined focus on a particular topic. They often address a new scientific area or an emerging field. At the IAU XXXII General Assembly, twelve Focus Meetings complemented the scientific program of six Symposia that are published separately. The Focus Meetings represented here include discussions of techniques (radio, optical, computational), objects (small Solar-System bodies, late-stage stellar systems, galaxies, gamma-ray sources), processes (gas emission, solar and stellar dynamos), and education (using remote observing facilities).
