Dates: 27th- 28th March 2023
We are pleased to announce Kavli Focus Meeting on:
Next Generation Surveys in the Rubin-LSST era.
The meeting will take place in the Hoyle Lecture Theatre on March 27th and 28th, from 9:00 until 15:00, with coffee in the Hoyle Foyer and lunch at Churchill College.
This meeting will focus on bringing together researchers interest in time-domain and static science with the Vera C. Rubin Observatory and surveys adjacent to Rubin-LSST at Cambridge, with the aim of fostering collaboration to learn from ongoing surveys and optimise the science returns from synergies with future surveys in the coming years to decade.
The programme for the two days is:
