*************************** ** THE GEM MESSENGER ** *************************** Volume 15, Number 42 June 16, 2005 -------------------------------------------------------------------------- Comparative Magnetosphere-Ionosphere Coupling Thursday June 30, 0400-0600 PM, Eldorado Anasazi Room -------------------------------------------------------------------------- From: Aaron Ridley This workshop compares aspects of M/I Coupling on Earth with that of other planets. Its goal is to bring together the variety of expertise we use to understand our own space environment and use this to address outstanding questions related to other planets, and vice-versa. Brief introductions to comparative magnetospheres and aeronomy (of Mars, Saturn, and Jupiter) will be provided for context, followed by an open discussion of similarities and differences between M/I coupling of planetary bodies and Earth. In addition, we will discuss outstanding questions that we as a community would like to address. Please contact Aaron Ridley (ridley@umich.edu) or Jackie Schoendorf (jschoendorf@mrcnh.com) for more information. +-------------------------------------------------------------------------+ |To subscribe GEM Messengers, send an e-mail to | | with the following command in the body of your e-mail message: | | subscribe gem | |To remove yourself from the mailing list, the command is: | | unsubscribe gem | | | |To broadcast a message to the GEM community, please contact Peter Chi at | | | |Please use plain text as the format of your submission. | | | |URL of GEM Home Page: http://www-ssc.igpp.ucla.edu/gem/Welcome.html | |Workshop Information: http://gem.rice.edu/~gem | +-------------------------------------------------------------------------+
