EVENT

Title

Mini-Conference on Nonlinear Waves and Processes in Space Plasmas

Date

5-9 November 2018

Location

Portland, OR, USA

Description

We hope to provide a forum for developing modeling methods and tools, to foster cross-fertilization among different subdisciplines of application, and to enable communication between the theorists who build the models and simulations and the experimentalists who apply them. Nonlinear waves, wave-wave interactions, and chaos are believed to play dominant roles in the heating and acceleration of charged particles and generating turbulence in space, astrophysical and laboratory plasmas. These waves represent the electromagnetic signature of solar-terrestrial coupling and are useful for the forecasting and monitoring of space weather.
