What is the role played by the complex interstellar gas distribution in star-formation processes? How can we highlight their interdependence and their respective properties? What are the best tools available at the moment and what kind of analysis will lead to a better understanding of the star-formation process?
FROM CLOUDS TO STARS
The aim of this meeting is to gather national and European researchers together around the topic of star formation and the multiscale structural and physical relation between the parental molecular clouds and their young stellar objects. The structural analysis of both entities, molecular clouds and young stellar clusters, is done in general by two distinct communities in astrophysics. This meeting aims to overview the different structural and physical analysis tools that are used and that are currently developed by both communities in order to establish the connection between the gas structuration and the clustering and mass segregation of stars.
DATA MINING & TRANSDISCIPLINARITY
In addition to establish the links between these two communities, the “Grenoble Star Formation meeting” wants to explore the transdisciplinarity aspect of the data mining and the image processing fields. Through dedicated multidisciplinary sessions, this meeting will provide new insights in imagery techniques and supervised/unsupervised classification techniques presented by local experts outside the astronomy field.
Now in video-conference format
After having acknowledged the conditions to hold in-person meetings and also in order to preserve the safety of every participants the LOC decided to make the transition to the video-conference format. This choice will have a minimal impact on the program. In particular, the morning hands-on workshops are maintained and more details about these events will be provided soon.
