[Cosmo-pl] Hot Topics Cosmo 12-17.05.2014, Cargese, FR; IAUS306 Statistics Cosmo 26-29.05.2014, Lisbon, PT

[Boud Roukema]

hi cosmo-pl,

Here are two 2014 FR-based cosmo meetings that you might find
interesting.  Announcement "3." below is in French, but if you paste
the URL into a browser, you'll see that the program looks like it will
very likely be in English. One PL-based participant is already listed
in the preliminary program.

L'atelier SW8 se tiendra la semaine du 12 mai 2013 à l'institut
d'études scientifiques de Cargèse. Il a pour objectif de rassembler
des spécialistes en physique des particules, astrophysique et
cosmologie pour débattre sur des problèmes émergents en vue de
perspectives innovantes. Il se singularise des ateliers traditionnels
par le fait que le programme est précisé seulement une semaine avant
sa tenue, sur la base des conférences proposées par les
participants. Le nombre de participants n'excède pas 30 et le nombre
d'exposés est choisi de sorte à favoriser les échanges.

4. IAUS306: statistical challenges in 21st century cosmology - 26-29 mai 2014, 
Lisbonne
---------------------------------------------------------------------------

The IAU Symposium 306 on Statistical Challenges in 21st Century
Cosmology will take place in Lisbon, Portugal from 26-29 May 2014,
with a tutorial day on 25 May.

Full exploitation of the very large surveys of the Cosmic Microwave
Background, Large-Scale Structure, weak gravitational lensing and
future 21cm surveys will require use of the best statistical
techniques to answer the major cosmological questions of the 21st
century, such as the nature of Dark Energy and gravity.
Thus it is timely to emphasise the importance of inference in
cosmology, and to promote dialogue between astronomers and
statisticians. This has been recognized by the creation of the IAU
Working Group in Astrostatistics and Astroinformatics in 2012.
IAU Symposium 306 will be devoted to problems of inference in
cosmology, from data processing to methods and model selection, and
will have an important element of cross-disciplinary involvement from
the statistics communities.

You are invited to submit an abstract for a contributed talk or poster
for the meeting, via the meeting website
(http://sccc21.sim.ul.pt). The deadline for abstract submission is
21st March 2014. Full information on the scientific rationale,
programme, proceedings, critical dates, and local arrangements will be
on the symposium web site.
