First Circular https://www.cps-jp.org/~pschool/pub/2011-01-10/index.html CPS 7th International School of Planetary Sciences Date: 10 -15 January 2011 Venue: Seapal Suma, a casual seaside resort located in the west part of Kobe, Japan Address: 1-1-1 Sumaura-dori, Suma, Kobe 654-0055 Japan Phone: +81 78 731 6815 / Fax: +81 78 734 1896 Japanese site: http://www.seapalsuma.com/? English site: http://web.travel.rakuten.co.jp/portal/my/info_page_e.Eng?f_no=13907&f_ptn1=&f_teikei= Objective and Scope: The objective of CPS International School of Planetary Sciences is to promote education and research in planetary sciences for highly motivated graduate students and young researchers worldwide. It will offer them an opportunity to interact with leading scientists in a specific field of the year. Note that ?Planetary Sciences??includes astronomy (astrophysics, astrochemistry, astrobiology, etc.), geosciences, space science, and other related fields. Topic of the coming school Theory of Stellar Evolution and Its Applications from the First Stars to Planet-Hosting Stars and Gas Giant Planets The main part of the school will be a series of lectures on the structure and evolution of stars with various masses including gas giant planets and on the effects of mass loss and stellar rotation upon them. Then a series of lectures follow on their contributions to the nucleosynthesis and chemical evolution of the Milky Way and dwarf galaxies in the local group and to the evolutionary characteristics of planet-hosting stars from theoretical and observational viewpoints. The development of our understandings in these fields has been achieved by recent observations with large ground-based telescopes and space telescopes and owing to large-scaled surveys of metal-poor stars, supernova searches and searches for exo-planetary systems. CPS 7th International School has a special session dedicated to the memory of Prof. Chushiro Hayashi who was one of the founders of the theory of stellar evolution and passed away in 2010. Internationally well-established experts in various fields will review recent progress in our understandings of those fields. The lecturers and their topics are listed below: Daiichiro Sugimoto (The University of Tokyo, Japan) ---Why the Stars and the Universe evolve? --- Fundamentals of Stellar Structure and Evolution and Their Gravothermal Natures Peter R. Wood (Australian National University, Australia) ---Evolution and Mass Loss of Low- and Intermediate-Mass Stars Georges Meynet (University of Geneva, Switzerland) ---Evolution of Massive Stars and the Effects of Rotation Stanley P. Owocki (University of Delaware, USA) ---Mass Loss from Massive Stars Alexander Heger (University of Minnesota, USA) ---Explosive Nucleosynthesis Martin Asplund (Max-Planck-Institut f端r Astrophysik, Germany) ---Solar Abundances, Solar Twins, and Planet Harboring Stars Arlette Noels (Universit?de Li竪ge, Belgium), ---Seismology and Oscillations of Stars Jonathan J. Fortney (University of California, Santa Cruz, USA) ---Structure and Evolution of Gas Giant Planets Andrea Ferrara (Scuola Normale Superiore, Italy) ---Star Formation in the Early Universe and the Transition from Population III to Populations II and I Eline Tolstoy (University of Groningen, The Netherlands) ---Chemical Evolution of the Milky Way and Local Group Galaxies Memorial Lecture for Prof. Chushiro Hayashi Daiichiro Sugimoto (The University of Tokyo, Japan) ---The Discovery of Hayashi Phase and His Way of Thinking Who are the target participants? - The lectures are targeted on PhD students and post-docs - Please note that this school is not for bachelor and diploma students - All the lectures are in English and we welcome eligible applicants worldwide How to apply? - Please go to the following webpage https://www.cps-jp.org/guestEntryPrivacypolicySimple.php?ml_lang=en First, create your CPS account at this page.
