1. WORKSHOP: Observatory for the Outer Heliosphere, Heliosheath, and Interstellar Space

Thursday, Friday 21-22 May 2020

LASP-SPSC, University of Colorado, Boulder

With both Voyager spacecraft in interstellar space, the IBEX and the upcoming IMAP missions imaging the outer boundaries of the heliosphere, and New Horizons in the outer heliosphere, it is an ideal time to combine resources from these missions and modeling efforts. This workshop seeks input aimed at developing plans to maximize the use of these observations and their comparison to models, plus plan any operational changes that can maximize the return from these missions.

2. MEETING: The 19th Annual International Astrophysics Conference will be held in Santa Fe, New Mexico, March 9 - 13, 2020. (Welcome Reception and Evening Registration begins Sunday, March 8).

The theme of the meeting will be "From the Sun's Atmosphere to the Edge of the Galaxy: A Story of Connections" 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.

The oldest and the newest heliospheric space missions are distinguished by being the farthest and closest human-made objects ever to the Sun. Plunging into the depths of the atmosphere of the Sun, the Parker Solar Probe, launched in August 12, 2018, has completed the first three closest encounter passes to the Sun, edging closer and closer with each orbit. The venerable Voyager 1 spacecraft, launched in 1977, entered the very local interstellar medium on 25 August 2012 and at ~141 astronomical units from the Sun is now further from the Earth than any other human-made object. Voyager 2, following suit, likewise entered the interstellar medium on 5 November 2018.

It is astonishing that, since the start of the space age in October 1957, humankind is now reaching for the stars and reaching into a star itself.

Despite the immense distance separating the Voyager spacecraft from the Sun, the Sun's influence is still felt in the immensely cold distant very local interstellar medium. This conference will address the connected story of how the Sun and interstellar medium collectively shape their environment.

ST1.1 Open Session on the Sun and Heliosphere

This session traditionally provides a forum for the discussion of all aspects of solar and heliospheric physics. Popular topics have included solar cycle dependencies of the Sun, solar wind and heliosphere, Coronal Mass Ejection research, studies of energetic particles throughout the heliosphere, and the outer boundaries of the heliosphere. We encourage contributions related to all ongoing and planned space missions, to ground-based experiments and to theoretical research. Papers presenting ideas for future space missions and experiments are very welcome in this session. The session will consist of both oral and poster presentations.

Conveners: Manuela Temmer, Olga Malandraki, Andre Galli

ST1.2 Multi-spacecraft Measurements in the Inner Heliosphere on Various Scales

Much of our knowledge about the large-scale structure and variations of the solar wind, interplanetary magnetic field (IMF), transients (coronal mass ejections, shocks) and energetic particles in the inner heliosphere (< 2 AU) was gained from multi-spacecraft in-situ measurements, especially from missions such as Helios and STEREO as well as conjunctions between spacecraft at various planets. We have also gained some knowledge of structures and variability in the interplanetary space associated with turbulence, waves and instabilities on much smaller scales thanks to ACE, Wind and ARTEMIS as well as MMS, while their properties on intermediate (meso) scales is yet mostly unknown. The aim of this session is to discuss progress in our understanding of CMEs, CIRs, shocks, SEPs, the IMF and solar wind made thanks to multi-spacecraft measurements on various scales ranging from a fraction of an earth radius to 1 AU and the way forward. This session invites abstracts related to analyses and simulations of multi-spacecraft measurements in the inner heliosphere. It is especially interested in in-situ measurements made possible by STEREO (which will be within 60 degrees of the Sun-Earth line by the end of 2020), Solar Probe, Solar Orbiter and missions near L1, planetary missions (MESSENGER, BepiColombo, MAVEN) as well as future missions, concepts and instrumentation to investigate the various scales in interplanetary space.

Conveners: Harald Kucharek, Charles Farrugia, Benoit Lavraud, Noe Lugaz, Alessandro Retino

ST1.6 Advancing the Understanding of the Heliosphere and the Very Local Interstellar Medium with IMAP

The Interstellar Mapping and Acceleration Probe (IMAP) is a future space mission dedicated to study the interaction of the solar wind with the interstellar medium and the acceleration of energetic particles. These two topics are crucial for understanding the coupling between the inner and the outer heliosphere. With discoveries of the past (e.g., Mariner, Pioneers, Ulysses) and the present (e.g., Voyager, SOHO/SWAN, IBEX) heliospheric missions our understanding of the heliosphere, its boundary regions, as well as the Very Local Interstellar Medium (VLISM) still expands. Many methods and techniques have developed to study the heliosphere and its interstellar neighbourhood. The boundaries regions of the heliosphere are probed directly by the two Voyager spacecraft and their investigation is accessible by remote observations of the energetic neutral atoms (ENAs), interstellar neutral (ISN) gas, pickup ions (PUIs), cosmic rays, and heliospheric backscattered ultraviolet emission by instruments in the Earth's vicinity.

The processes in the inner and the outer heliosphere comprise a complex system to investigate the shape and size of the heliosphere, the plasma flow in the inner and outer heliosheath, as well as the magnetic field, the composition, and the ionization state of the VLISM. This session is dedicated to contributions advancing the understanding of the heliosphere and its interaction with VLISM, this includes theory development, modelling, analysis of data from past and present space missions, and preparations for future heliospheric missions like, e.g., IMAP.

5. MEETING: SCOSTEP's 15th Quadrennial Solar-Terrestrial Physics Symposium (STP-15), Alibag, India, February 21-25, 2022

We are happy to announce that the SCOSTEP's 15th Quadrennial Solar-Terrestrial Physics Symposium (STP-15) will be held at Alibag, India, on February 21-25, 2022.

The Scientific Committee on Solar-Terrestrial Physics (SCOSTEP) organizes the Solar-Terrestrial Physics (STP) symposium once every four years. SCOSTEP is engaged in three major activities: long-term scientific programs, capacity building and public outreach. The scientific programs are of interdisciplinary nature involving scientists from around the world. They are designed to advance our understanding of the solar-terrestrial relationship using space- and ground-based observations, cutting-edge models and theory. Under what ways the Sun affects the Earth and its environment over various time scales is the underlying theme of the scientific programs pursued under SCOSTEP. Having addressed the variability component during the recently concluded Variability of the Sun and its Terrestrial Impact (VarSITI) program, the new program of SCOSTEP, Predictability of the variable Solar-Terrestrial Coupling (PRESTO, 2020-2024, http://www.issibj.ac.cn/Publications/Forum_Reports/201404/W020190620592906717714.pdf<https://urldefense.proofpoint.com/v2/url?u=http-3A__www.issibj.ac.cn_Publications_Forum-5FReports_201404_W020190620592906717714.pdf&d=DwMFaQ&c=c6MrceVCY5m5A_KAUkrdoA&r=4BZ-uTnH00TnuKAOCbKUOK3LTFPSR66zNO6YhwTdgPg&m=cEnzgJBS9hGDSS43yG4ApeidrgKRqZna0wqS1oo6JWo&s=GNkpTSuar9erku2FxSJqIBwoxu2AazlYor9O_N_SvU8&e=>), address the predictability component of those phenomena that have impact on the Sun-Earth system as a whole in various time scales.

The STP-15 will aim to gather eminent scientists from solar, magnetospheric, ionospheric and atmospheric physics communities to discuss and deliberate on the cutting-edge sciences pertaining to STP. STP-15 will address the predictability as a focus area in each of the traditional topics deliberated upon during the earlier STP meetings, namely, the mass and radiation chains and intra-atmospheric coupling.

Please put the date of STP-15 into your calendar, and prepare to join in with the new SCOSTEP program PRESTO.

8 . MEETING: MUAN 2020: Upper Atmospheres and Ionospheres in the Inner Solar System, September 9-11, 2020, New York, New York.

This three-day workshop will bring together scientists interested in the general dynamics of, and coupling between, ionized and neutral atmospheric constituents of three key inner Solar System planets: Mars, Earth, and Venus. Other bodies, such as comets and moons are also welcome. The objective is to embrace comparative studies between different planetary bodies in addition to the usual Mars aeronomy and plasma physics discussions, as this will lead to a better understanding of the role of upper atmospheres on planetary evolution and habitability at Mars and in the Solar System.

The main topics for discussion are:
•             Planetary aeronomy - past, present and future.
•             Thermosphere-ionosphere-magnetosphere-exosphere (TIME) coupling.
•             Lower-upper atmosphere connections.

A significant part of the workshop will be devoted to brainstorming and opportunities to discuss different science aspects, and to help establish fruitful collaborations.

Our workshop will be hosted by Columbia University in New York City, with opportunities to present posters or talks. The workshop will be limited to 100 attendees, so to aid us in planning, we encourage all those interested to please indicate your interest here: https://bit.ly/37Obwp9<https://urldefense.proofpoint.com/v2/url?u=https-3A__bit.ly_37Obwp9&d=DwQFaQ&c=c6MrceVCY5m5A_KAUkrdoA&r=4BZ-uTnH00TnuKAOCbKUOK3LTFPSR66zNO6YhwTdgPg&m=cEnzgJBS9hGDSS43yG4ApeidrgKRqZna0wqS1oo6JWo&s=402UyFYdc-cOumblGvCOnjawUA4UE7Z0dBgbO_4FKrw&e=>

11. ANNOUNCEMENT: First release of PSP science data

First release of level 2 PSP-ISOIS science data

The Parker Solar Probe (PSP) Integrated Science Investigation of the Sun (ISOIS) Team is delighted to announce the first release of our level 2 science data to the community. ISOIS comprises a two-instrument suite to measure energetic particles over a very broad energy range: EPI-Lo measurements of ions and ion composition from ~20 keV/nucleon–15 MeV total energy and electrons from ∼25–1000 keV, and EPI-Hi measurements of ions from ~1–200 MeV/nucleon and electrons from ~0.5–6 MeV. Together, ISOIS observations enable the exploration of mechanisms of energetic particles dynamics, including their: (1) Origins — defining the seed populations and physical conditions necessary for energetic particle acceleration; (2) Acceleration — determining the roles of shocks, reconnection, waves, and turbulence in accelerating energetic particles; and (3) Transport — revealing how energetic particles propagate from the corona out into the heliosphere. The data from the first ISʘIS data release spans the interval from Sept 28, 2018 to April 10, 2019, covering most of the first two PSP orbits.

The  ISOIS data, user guide, and more are available to the community at: https://spacephysics.princeton.edu/missions-instruments/isois<https://urldefense.proofpoint.com/v2/url?u=https-3A__spacephysics.princeton.edu_missions-2Dinstruments_isois&d=DwMFaQ&c=c6MrceVCY5m5A_KAUkrdoA&r=4BZ-uTnH00TnuKAOCbKUOK3LTFPSR66zNO6YhwTdgPg&m=cEnzgJBS9hGDSS43yG4ApeidrgKRqZna0wqS1oo6JWo&s=X3fuICvHxn-1YxNNxPRZP_lUN3NTKk_QGkhvw0Pqek4&e=>
