Astrochemistry on Small Scales
University of Manchester
23-24 May 2016
The Astrophysical Chemistry Group is pleased to announce that its Annual Meeting will be held at the Jodrell Bank Centre of Astrophysics, School of Physics and Astronomy, University of Manchester on 23-24 May 2016. The meeting, on the topic of 鈥楢strochemistry on Small Scales鈥�, will also incorporate the Annual General Meeting of the ApChem Group which will be held at 5pm on Monday 23 May.
The completion of the ALMA interferometer, the availability of high-resolution infrared spectrographs on 8m telescopes, the cutting edge capabilities of e-MERLIN, the recent Rosetta mission to Comet 67/P CG, and future planned missions to detect exoplanet atmospheres have revolutionised our ability to study astrochemistry on small spatial scales. We can now study the chemical composition of, for example, moons in the outer Solar System, protoplanetary disks, and dust-forming zones of evolved stars and look for commonalities and differences between Solar System and interstellar chemistries. The aim of this meeting is to present recent observational, experimental, and theoretical results that will enable us to better understand the fundamental physics and chemistry of planets and stars and the material out of which they form.
This joint 欧美AV/RAS meeting will consist of invited and contributed talks and poster presentations. In particular, we wish to encourage early-career researchers (PDRAs and PhD students) to take the opportunity to inform the UK community 鈥� a very friendly bunch! 鈥� of their work and research plans.
The registration fee is 拢30 which will cover tea/coffee and lunches. A conference dinner will be organised at a local, likely Indian, restaurant with individuals covering their own costs.
Bursaries for early career researchers will be available. However, researchers have to present a talk to qualify.
Further details and registration material can be found on the meeting web site:

We look forward to seeing you in Manchester.
