<br>
Dear colleagues,<br>
<br>
I have the pleasure to extend a small number of personal
invitations (including in-kind support; see below) to attend the
ISSI-Beijing Workshop on “Space based Astrophysics in the
Ultraviolet”, to be held at the ISSI-Beijing premises from <b>14
to 18 April 2025</b>.<br>
<br>
ISSI-Beijing offers an international platform for research and
discussions of topics across the remit of the space sciences in a
stimulating, politically neutral environment. All of our programme
activities must, by definition, be multilateral (with participants
representing a minimum of 4 nationalities) and interdisciplinary.
<br>
<br>
“Workshops” in the ISSI-Beijing context are 5-day conferences
hosting up to 50 scientists, including early-career researchers.
Participation is by invitation only; selection of participants is
done by an international team of conveners (see the Workshop
webpage for their names). Instead of conference proceedings, all
participants are invited to participate in the drafting of one or
more review articles that will in first instance be published
(following peer review) in <i>Space Science Reviews</i>
(<a class="moz-txt-link-freetext" href="https://url.au.m.mimecastprotect.com/s/4QtYCq71mwf7LVyqwcpI9FESRHa?domain=link.springer.com">https://link.springer.com/journal/11214</a>; 2023 Impact Factor:
9.1), for eventual bundling of the chapters into a volume of the <i>Space
Science Series of ISSI</i>.<br>
<br>
At ISSI-Beijing we want our participants to focus on scientific
excellence; we deal with the exploitation of space-science data
(as well as with complementary models and ground-based
observations, where relevant) and with forecasting to future
mission ideas, all focused on the science. We don’t engage in
spacecraft design/engineering or technology transfer activities.
(These meetings comply with Australian restrictions on countering
foreign interference.)<br>
<br>
All non-local participants are offered hotel accommodation (with
breakfast) in the four-star Park Plaza hotel (a 5–10 min walk from
the ISSI-Beijing premises;<br>
<a class="moz-txt-link-freetext" href="https://url.au.m.mimecastprotect.com/s/giCHCr81nytDwWRgJI3SxF47s60?domain=radissonhotels.com">https://www.radissonhotels.com/en-us/hotels/park-plaza-beijing-science-park</a>)
free of charge, from the night before the first day of the
Workshop until the last night of the Workshop. We also offer a
welcome banquet and lunches. Travel to Beijing is not covered.<br>
<br>
At this stage, we have a small number (5-6) of open slots. In
first instance, we are looking to invite Australian colleagues to
attend, with the aim of strengthening Australia-China
collaborations. Any interested colleagues should contact us by
email, to <a class="moz-txt-link-abbreviated" href="mailto:richard.de-grijs@issibj.ac.cn">richard.de-grijs@issibj.ac.cn</a> -- please include a brief
motivation and explain how you see your science fit into the
Workshop's overall theme. Applications will be dealt with on a
rolling basis. Early-career researchers are particularly
encouraged to apply.<br>
<br>
On behalf of the Workshop conveners,<br>

ISSI-Beijing)<br>
