The 2008 Asia-Pacific Region International Heliophysical Year School

                             First Announcement

The 2008 Asia-Pacific Region International Heliophysical year (IHY) School will be held at Center for Space Science and Applied Research (CSSAR), Chinese Academy of Sciences (CAS), Beijing, China, Oct 20-Oct 31, 2008.  

The purposes of this school are to educate students about universal processes in the heliosphere, to provide them with an opportunity to view their own interests in a new context, to promote the international collaboration and to exchange ideas in heliophysical studies. It is part of the IHY Schools Program that is developing a series of schools in 2007 and 2008 planned in International Heliophysical Year (IHY). China is the host of this second Asia-Pacific Regional IHY School and more than ten outstanding worldwide researchers in Heliophysics, who come from USA, Austria, Japan, India, Korea and China etc., are invited to give lectures. This two-week autumn school focus on a broad range of extended heliophysics, including solar physics , heliospheric physics, geospace physics and space weather, related to the IHY science topic areas.
