Description

1st ASTERICS-OBELICS International School

"Advanced software programming for astrophysics and astroparticle physics".
 

When: 6-9 June 2017.

 

Where: Particle Physics Laboratory of Annecy-le-Vieux, Annecy-le Vieux, France.

 

Who can attend this school: this school is specifically intended for a large audience including PhD students, postdocs, senior researchers from the domain of astrophysics and astroparticle physics. It will provide theoretical and hands-on training to acquire efficient and fast computer programming techniques, as well as skills for improving their scientific data analysis software. 

For more details on the topics covered under this school visit the programme page.

 

Prerequisites: beginner to intermediate level, with knowledge of programming languages. Python will be the language of reference during the school. 

 

Registration Deadline : 7 April 2017.

 

How to Register:  please visit the registration page for details.

 

Who is organizing this school: LAPP is the organizing this school in association with OBELICS partners, PRACE. This international school is being organized in the framework of OBELICS  (Observatory E-environments LINked by common ChallengeS) work package of H2020-ASTERICS project.

 

What is H2020-ASTERICS: the Astronomy ESFRI and Research Infrastructure Cluster, ASTERICS, is a Research Infrastructure funded by the European Commission's Horizon 2020 framework. ASTERICS aims to address the cross-cutting synergies and common challenges shared by world class Astronomy ESFRI Facilities such as SKACTAKM3NeT, LSST, LOFAR, EUCLID, EGOE-ELT.

        In this light-hearted talk we will briefly (!) cover how data management has evolved in astronomy from the first photographic images to the present. I will also give a personal speculation of what the future holds for how we will interact with astronomical data and how researchers, observatories and astronomical data centers can prepare. Finally I will talk about some of the plans for the Large Synoptic Survey Telescope (LSST) Science platform.
