The meeting in Granada aims at bringing together scientists
involved in the study of the "end products" of stellar
evolution, favouring an atmosphere suitable for scientific
discussion. While special emphasis will be put on studies
of those phases of stellar evolution through radio
observations, a significant number of invited and contributed
talks will include studies in other bands of the
electromagnetic spectrum. We hope this approach will bring
together specialists working in a number of different
spectral bands.
The workshop will be divided in different sessions, and will
focuse on the following topics:
- From AGB stars to Planetary Nebulae
- Pulsars and Neutron Stars
- Supernovae and Supernova Remnants
- Compact objects in binary systems
- GRBs
The workshop should set a stage for addressing unsolved issues in our understanding of stellar end products, and how
to approach them with the use of the present and future new
generation telescopes (VLTI, ALMA, SKA....). The workshop
should also serve to discuss the relevance and connection of
stellar end products with other astrophysical fields.
Critical aspects of each topic will be highlighted in a
small number of invited reviews, and further explored in the
contributed talks and discussion forums at the end of each day.
The workshop will have about ten review and invited talks
covering the main research topics, and setting the stage for
about 25-30 oral presentations. A modest number of posters
can be accommodated in the main hall of the IAA. Each working
day of the meeting will end with a joint discussion. Because
of time and space limitations, attendance at the workshop is
limited to 55 participants, all of whom are expected to
contribute either an oral or poster presentation.
