4. 2022 Benasque conference “New frontiers in strong gravity” (Jul 03–16 2022, Benasque, Spain)
We would like to announce the two-week workshop “New frontiers in strong gravity” taking place in Benasque, Spain from Jul 03–16, 2022; please see the announcement below and the website http://benasque.org/general/cgi-bin/years.pl?ano=2022 for further information.
The highly nonlinear, strong-field regime of gravity holds the key to address long-standing puzzles in modern physics. These range from deeply theoretical questions concerning a consistent theory of quantum gravity and resulting modifications to general relativity, over the stability properties of black holes in traditional general relativity, to new insight into nuclear matter under extreme conditions in the context of neutron star and multimessenger astronomy.
In this two-week workshop (Jul 03–16, 2022) we will bring together leading experts as well as junior scientists and PhD students in these diverse research areas, to encourage communication and training across the fields and to foster new research collaborations.
Invited speakers include:
Masha Baryaktar • Laura Bernard • Beatrice Bonga • Katerina Chatziioannou • Katy Clough • Mihalis Dafermos • Will East • Roberto Emparan • Tanja Hinderer • Aaron Kovacs • Macarena Lagos • Luis Lehner • Lionel London • David Mateos • Maria Okounkova • Carlos Palenzuela • Paolo Pani • Patricia Schmidt • Thomas Sotiriou • Rita Teixeira • Toby Wiseman • Nicolas Yunes
The number of participants is limited. We ask students to upload a short CV (maximal 2 pages). Limited travel support will be available, with priority given to students and participants from underrepresented groups. To apply for travel support please include some text justifying your request for support on the registration page. Registration will close on May 31, 2022. Registration will open shortly.
To help us create a safe and healthy environment, we ask that all participants are fully vaccinated against Covid-19.

6. Ecole Athena 2022 (20 au 24 juin, Toulouse)
We are pleased to announce the first edition of the Athena School: “The Universe in the era of spatially resolved, high-resolution, X-ray spectroscopy”. This CNRS thematic school will be held from the 20th to the 24th of June 2022 in Toulouse, France. It is open to the whole French astronomical community, regardless of prior experience in high energy astrophysics.
Athena (Advanced Telescope for High-Energy Astrophysics) is ESA’s next generation X-ray observatory. It is the second large-class mission of its Cosmic Vision programme and the successor of current missions, ESA’s XMM-Newton and NASA’s Chandra. With its two focal plane instruments, the X-IFU (X-ray Integral Field Unit) and the WFI (Wide Field Imager), Athena will unveil the physics of the Hot and Energetic Universe through spatially resolved high-resolution X-ray spectroscopic observations. Athena will address two fundamental questions in astrophysics: 1) How did matter come together over time to form the Universe as we observe it today? and 2) How do black holes form, grow and shape the Universe?
The lessons and practicals will cover the whole breadth of Athena’s scientific reach i) the dynamical assembly of clusters of galaxies, the chemical enrichment of the Universe; ii) the search for the most distant super-massive black holes, the physical mechanisms coupling black holes and their environment; iii) the life cycle of stars from the chemistry of the intergalactic medium, the physics of stellar winds and of supernova remnant, to the endpoints of stellar evolution, namely compact objects.
The aim of the school is to provide participants (staff, postdocs, PhD students, etc.) with knowledge of the scientific objectives of Athena, foster collaboration in the early stage of their careers, stimulate inter- and multi-disciplinary collaborations, and develop their skills in high-resolution X-ray spectroscopy. No specific background in X-ray astronomy is required to attend the school.
Registration for this event is now opened: https://fs6.formsite.com/XIFU/athena-school/index.htmlThe deadline is 30 April 2022. Each application will be reviewed by the Scientific Organisation Committee.

9. European Astronomical Society Annual Meeting 2022 (27 June – 1 July 2022, Valencia, Spain)
The European Astronomical Society (EAS) Annual Meeting (formerly known as EWASS, and earlier JENAM) has more than 25 years of tradition and it has imposed itself as the largest conference for European astronomy. In addition to plenary sessions and the award of prestigious prizes, the conference hosts many symposia held in parallel, as well as special sessions and meetings.
The EAS, often together with one of its affiliated societies, organises its annual meeting to enhance its links with national communities, to broaden connections between individual members and to promote European networks.
After two annual meetings in virtual format due to COVID-19, EAS 2022 is planned to be held physically in Valencia, Spain from 27 June to 1 July 2022. The conference is expected to welcome more than 1200 astrophysicists from all over Europe and even beyond.
