Workshop on Polarization in Protoplanetary Disks and Jets,
Sant Cugat, Spain
The study of the formation and evolution of protoplanetary disks around young stars saw a tremendous boost by the advent of ALMA and the development of new capabilities in the infrared and radio telescopes, thanks to the huge combined improvement in sensitivity, angular resolution, and image fidelity. However, the role of magnetic fields in the formation and evolution of disks around young stars is still a poorly understood topic. Are protoplanetary disks and protostellar jets magnetized? Polarimetric observations are the primary means to obtain information regarding the magnetic fields. However, this technique can be hampered by other polarization mechanisms such as dust self-scattering, radiation alignment of aspherical grains or anisotropic resonant scattering of linear polarization of molecular lines. The main goal of this focused meeting is to bring together observers and theoreticians interested in the study of magnetic fields in protoplanetary disks and protostellar jets as well as polarization mechanisms to review the current state of the research and explore effective means to probe magnetic fields

Ringberg Conference on Star-Planet Connection,
Ringberg Castle, Germany
This Ringberg conference will bring together the experts on atmospheres of stars and exoplanets and diagnostic spectroscopy of these systems. This is extremely timely and important in 2018+, as the astronomy community is, on the one hand, assembling huge datasets of stellar spectra across and beyond the Milky Way, enabling unprecendeted high-precision characterisation of stellar systems. On the other hand, recent advances in discovery and spectroscopy of exoplanets are revolutionising our understanding of planet formation and evolution scenarios. Exoplanet surveys like Kepler have discovered a surprising variation of exoplanets: from highly inflated hot Jupiters to Mini-Neptures and Super-Earths to potentially habitable planets around red stars that are much more active than the Sun and thus pose new challenges for the habitability of their planets. It has been realised that to make a critical step forward, fully utilising new technologies and instrumentation (such as JWST, Sphere at the VLT, E-ELT), combined efforts from both communities (stars and planets) are necessary, in which a star-planet system can no longer be viewed independently, but must be modeled in a consistent framework. The workshop will begin an intense discussion between the two communities and open numerous new perspectives, from the knowledge transfer on radioactive transfer and hydrodynamics simulations, to developing new methods of quantitative spectroscopy and pattern recognition in spectra of stars and exoplanets.

Hot-Wiring the Transient Universe VI,
Evanston, Illinois
Hot-Wiring the Transient Universe 6 will explore opportunities and challenges of massively parallel time domain surveys, coupled with rapid coordinated multi-wavelength follow-up observations. The interdisciplinary agenda includes future and ongoing science investigations, information infrastructure for publishing observations in real time, as well as novel data science to classify events and systems to optimize follow-up campaigns. Time domain astronomy is at the fore of modern astrophysics and crosses fields from solar physics and solar system objects, through stellar variability, to explosive phenomena at galactic and cosmological distances. Recent rapid progress by instruments in space and on the ground has been toward a continuous record of the electromagnetic sky with ever increasing coverage, sensitivity, and temporal resolution. With the advent of gravitational wave and neutrino observatories, we are witnessing the birth of multi-messenger astronomy.

NASEM's Committee on Astrobiology and Planetary Science (CAPS),
Irvine, California
The National Academies of Sciences, Engineering, and Medicine will appoint the Committee on Astrobiology and Planetary Sciences (CAPS) to operate as an ad-hoc committee. The overarching purpose of the committee is to support scientific progress in astrobiology and planetary science and assist the federal government in integrating and planning programs in these fields by providing advice on the implementation of decadal survey recommendations. The CAPS provides an independent, authoritative forum for identifying and discussing issues in astrobiology and planetary science between the research community, the federal government, and the interested public. The CAPS will issue reports that will provide guidance to federal agencies that support astrobiology and planetary science research. The CAPS scope spans space-based and supporting ground-based planetary research within our own planetary system, including, for example, geosciences, atmospheres, particles and fields of planets, moons, and small bodies, as well as astrobiology, planetary astronomy, and planetary protection. The CAPS's scope also includes appropriate cross-disciplinary areas and consideration of budget and programmatic aspects of the implementation of the decadal survey. The Committee will build on the current decadal survey of the field, "Vision and Voyages for Planetary Science in the Decade 2013-2022" (VVPS), and monitor the progress of its recommended priorities for the most important scientific and technical activities in that report and recommendations in the mid-decadal review report due to be issued in 2017. The committee will carry out its charge by undertaking the following tasks: at each of its in-person meetings, as appropriate, the committee may prepare concise assessments of progress on the implementation of the decadal survey's recommended scientific and technical activities; at an in-person meeting, the committee may prepare a concise report with advice on the preparation for future decadal and mid-decadal studies; and for advisory activities assessed to require a more in-depth review than is possible through the normal operation of the CAPS, the committee will assist the Academies in formulating the task and committee membership for such studies which will be designed as separate tasks.
