1ST ANNOUNCEMENT OF 'PLASMA PHYSICS AND ASTROPHYSICS UP TO 2020 AND BEYOND'. International workshop in honor of Pierluigi Veltri's 70th birthday' 7-8 OCTOBER 2019, UNIVERSITA DELLA CALABRIA, RENDE, ITALY

Dear Colleagues,

We are pleased to announce the international workshop 'Plasma Physics and
Astrophysics up to 2020 and beyond' organized by the Department of Physics
of Università della Calabria in honor of Pierluigi Veltri's 70th birthday.
The workshop will be held October 7-8 at Università della Calabria, Rende
(Italy).

The goal of the workshop is to review the main achievements in the last
five decades and to discuss the future developments in plasma physics, from
laboratory to space and astrophysical plasmas. We will bring together
experimentalists, theorists, and numerical modelers to discuss basic
aspects of the physics of turbulence, reconnection, shocks, kinetic and
nonlinear phenomena, in order to highlight new results and novel
approaches, as well as to exchange ideas among different research branches
of plasma physics.
