From: Gary P. Zank: garyp.zank at gmail.com<mailto:garyp.zank at gmail.com>

The 15th Annual International Astrophysics Conference will be held at the Westin Cape Coral Resort at Marina Village, Cape Coral, Florida, USA, from April 4 to April 8, 2015. (Welcome Reception and Evening Registration begins Sunday, April 3).

The conference website is now up and registration and abstract submission is available.

15th AIAC website: https://www.icnsmeetings.com/conference/15thannual/index.html<https://urldefense.proofpoint.com/v2/url?u=https-3A__www.icnsmeetings.com_conference_15thannual_index.html&d=BQMFaQ&c=l_IU86Q8JTGnHn9K9kRmRlrLmhfeE6S9tCyr6T8mzvM&r=PgkSJLafQIp13F7R6F5rsDZR_39nDoRvUiOh6vQNu2M&m=Of0yVISkdHudx1i5FvBg6YQuqGzMjSi_KceMFH7X_lI&s=oSCCiDoXDgg_CSkfWGhD1VKRVvUgKhwTJTItXdsbOBk&e=>

Please mark your calendar and contact us regarding your interest in attending. E-mail inquiries about the meeting should be directed to Gary Zank at https://www.icnsmeetings.com/conference/15thannual/contact.html<https://urldefense.proofpoint.com/v2/url?u=https-3A__www.icnsmeetings.com_conference_15thannual_contact.html&d=BQMFaQ&c=l_IU86Q8JTGnHn9K9kRmRlrLmhfeE6S9tCyr6T8mzvM&r=PgkSJLafQIp13F7R6F5rsDZR_39nDoRvUiOh6vQNu2M&m=Of0yVISkdHudx1i5FvBg6YQuqGzMjSi_KceMFH7X_lI&s=Z2ajp7xQrf-J-8urtIeKOvZLgVlmaIIVu3kwGHOTHy4&e=>.

The meeting is entitled, "The Science of Ed Stone: Celebrating his 80th Birthday", and will follow the same format as before with 25-minute presentations punctuated by selected 40-minute invited talks that will explore various themes in greater detail.

 Ed Stone has made foundational contributions to our understanding of all facets of the physics of energetic particles in the solar wind and the interstellar medium. Much of our current understanding of the interaction of the solar wind with the local interstellar medium is derived from the Voyager Interstellar Mission under Ed's leadership. His remarkable career has spanned the space age, contributing not only to science but to the leadership of our community. The 15th Annual International Astrophysics Conference will celebrate the science and scientific achievements of Ed Stone.

PLEASE DO NOT WAIT TO BOOK YOUR ROOM. Our turnout is larger than anticipated and unfortunately we have blocked only a very limited amount of rooms

Please go to the conference website for more details: www.icnsmeetings.com/conference/15thannual/accommodations.html<https://urldefense.proofpoint.com/v2/url?u=http-3A__www.icnsmeetings.com_conference_15thannual_accommodations.html&d=BQMFaQ&c=l_IU86Q8JTGnHn9K9kRmRlrLmhfeE6S9tCyr6T8mzvM&r=PgkSJLafQIp13F7R6F5rsDZR_39nDoRvUiOh6vQNu2M&m=Of0yVISkdHudx1i5FvBg6YQuqGzMjSi_KceMFH7X_lI&s=XGoQzPjJgc_oQvRn9okYIZPUjYmsmQ_oNWtyg1yFrNU&e=>
