The Sun: its Interior, Atmosphere and Wind

Continuous ground- and space-based observations of the Sun have provided detailed information on the solar interior, extended corona and solar wind.
These observations offer a unique capability to investigate the physical processes responsible for the dynamic nature of the Sun. The combination of these observations with realistic modeling is reshaping our understanding of the solar magnetic field and solar activity, and the mechanisms by which the corona is heated and the solar wind is accelerated.

The symposium invites contributions covering observations, theory and modeling of the different aspects of the Sun, including its interior, dynamo, magnetic field, atmosphere and wind. This broad scope is aimed at stimulating exchange and promoting discussion on physically connected phenomena which are seldom discussed in a single meeting.

The Preliminary Program indicates that IAGA session GAIV.01 will be held on July 27-29, 2005. Since this session covers a very broad range of topics, we would appreciate hearing from those interested in attending.
Please send either a title and/or abstract to the convener, so that we can plan the sessions and invited contributions based on interest and anticipated attendance.

Important Deadlines:

• Deadline for paper abstracts submission: 13 March 2005
• Deadline for electronic abstracts: 27 March 2005
