Dear all,

Here is the final circular of the TDE workshop and conference 2020 in Kyoto. 

The registration for participants only is still very welcome. The detail can be seen below.

Best regards,

Kimitake Hayasaki (Chungbuk National University)

=======================================

We are pleased to announce the following two meetings at the Yukawa 

Institute for Theoretical Physics (YITP), in Kyoto University, Japan:

1. "Tidal Disruption in Kyoto: Confronting Theory with Observations", 

  Jan 14-16, a 3-day conference on the astrophysics of TDEs.

2. "Tidal Disruption Events: General Relativistic Transients", Jan 17-25, 

  a YITP "Molecule-type" (2-week) theoretical workshop.
