Third Announcement

 

International Meeting on

 

HIGH-ENERGY PHENOMENA IN RELATIVISTIC OUTFLOWS V

 

La Plata city, October 5-8, 2015

 

Webpage: http://hepro5.iar.unlp.edu.ar/

 

The series of conferences High-Energy Phenomena in Relativistic Outflows, HEPRO, reaches now its fifth instalment. HEPRO V will take
place in La Plata, Argentina, from October 5th to 8th, 2015, hosted by the Group of Relativistic Astrophysics and Radio Astronomy
(GARRA) of the Instituto Argentino de Radioastronomía (IAR). The conference will be devoted to the presentation and discussion of hot
recent observational, phenomenological, and theoretical developments in the field of high-energy phenomena associated with
relativistic winds and jets. There will be both invited reviews and highlighted talks that will cover the most recent work in the
field. Plenty of time will be devoted to discussions.

Deadline for registration and abstract submission:

The deadline for registration and abstract submission is July 15th. Those interested in attending the meeting are encouraged to
register and submit their abstracts as soon as possible, completing the forms available in the meeting?s webpage:

http://hepro5.iar.unlp.edu.ar/registration.php#post-registration-form

Please notice that hereafter announcements will be delivered only to registered participants.

Accommodation in La Plata:

Participants are expected to make their own lodging arrangements. We strongly recommend booking well in advance, since other meetings
will take place in La Plata the same week as HEPRO V and the availability of accommodation may be limited. La Plata offers a variety
of options, from four-star hotels to youth hostels and apartments. Do not hesitate to contact us if you need help.
