2) Hommage à Anny-Chantal Levasseur-Regourd | 9 décembre | Jussieu, Paris

Chers tous,

Le 1er août dernier notre collègue Anny-Chantal Levasseur-Regourd nous quittait. Nous lui rendrons hommage le 9 décembre matin, sur le campus Pierre et Marie Curie de Sorbonne Université (Jussieu - amphi Herpin, bâtiment Esclangon, voir plan en PJ).

Veuillez trouver une invitation pour participer/assister à cet hommage et son programme en pièce jointe.

A l'issue de cette demi-journée, un livre blanc dans lequel vous pourrez laisser un message sera remis à la famille.

Amitiés,

Alice Le Gall & Cyril Szopa

3) Galilean Moons Workshop | Oct 24-26, 2023 | Marseille

 

The Workshop on the Origins and Habitability of the Galilean Moons is scheduled for October 24–26, 2023, at the Laboratoire d’Astrophysique de Marseille, Technopole de Marseille-Etoile, 38 rue Frédéric Joliot-Curie, 13388 Marseille cedex 13, France. The three-day in-person workshop will be co-chaired by Olivier Mousis, Kathy Mandt and Morgan Cable. Further information can be found here: 


https://galileanmoons.com

The goal of this workshop is to prepare for the arrival of the ESA/JUICE and NASA/Europa-Clipper missions in the Jovian system. In particular, the link between the composition of the moons and the formation conditions of giant planets systems, as well as their potential habitability, as evidenced by measurement techniques, instrumentation, laboratory experiments, and future mission concepts in the framework of international collaborations, are of high interest. Presenters will be encouraged to submit their works to a special issue of a dedicated journal.

In-person attendance will be limited to ninety people; limited opportunity for virtual participation is planned. Some support for in-person attendance may also be available for students and early-career researchers. The organizers will monitor the COVID situation, and the workshop format, including virtual participation, will be adjusted as necessary.

4) EGU | 23–28 April 2023 | Vienna, Austria

a) Icy Moon Exploration: Bridging the Cryosphere and Icy Moon Communities

https://meetingorganizer.copernicus.org/EGU23/session/45808

 

Co-organized by CR7

Convener: Marc S. BoxbergECS | Co-conveners: Hans HuybrighsECS, Ana-Catalina Plesa, Stephanie Cazaux, Simon C. Stähler

Abstract submission
The icy moons of our Solar System are prime targets for the search for extraterrestrial life. Moons such as Saturn's Enceladus and Jupiter's Europa are considered potential habitats because of their subglacial water oceans, which are in direct contact with the rocks below. Titan, with its potential subsurface ocean, icy surface and methane-based weather, could provide an analogue for a primordial earth and the circumstances in which life developed. To assess the habitability and sample the oceans of these moons, several approaches are being discussed, including water plume surveys on Europa and Enceladus, as well as developing key technologies to penetrate the ice and even study the ocean itself with autonomous underwater vehicles, if the ice is thin enough. Moreover, a key aspect of habitability is linked with the geological processes acting on these moons. The main questions that this session aims to address are the following:
- What can we learn from analogue studies on Earth?
- What are the properties of the ice shell and how do they evolve?
- What measurements should be conducted by future missions?


The goal of this multidisciplinary session is to bring together scientists from different fields, including planetary sciences and the cryosphere community, to discuss the current status and next steps in the in-situ exploration of the icy moons of our solar system. We welcome contributions from analogue studies, on the results of current and past missions, planned missions, mission concepts, lessons learned from other missions, and more. Contributions bridging the cryosphere-icy moons communities are of particular interest to this session.
 

b) Atmospheres and exospheres of terrestrial planets, satellites, and exoplanets

I would like to draw your attention to our session: Atmospheres and exospheres of terrestrial planets, satellites, and exoplanets.

"This session primarily focuses on the neutral atmospheres of terrestrial bodies other than the Earth. This includes not only Venus and Mars, but also exoplanets with comparable envelopes and satellites carrying dense atmospheres such as Titan or exospheres such as Ganymede. We welcome contributions dealing with processes affecting the atmospheres of these bodies, from the surface to the exosphere. We invite abstracts concerning observations, both from Earth or from space, modeling and theoretical studies, or laboratory work. Comparative planetology abstracts will be particularly appreciated.”

Hope to see you in Vienna!

Best regards,

The conveners
Arnaud Beth, Arianna Piccialli, and Audrey Vorburger

5) Four positions on Venus atmospheric research in Daegon, South-Korea

The Planetary Atmospheres Group (PAG) invites researchers with high motivation for Venus atmospheric research. The successful applicants will collaborate with Cette adresse e-mail est protégée contre les robots spammeurs. Vous devez activer le JavaScript pour la visualiser., the Chief Investigator (CI) of PAG. The work will involve analyzing Venus data and conducting ground-based observations, including data reduction. The ground-based observations will be coordinated with space missions such as JAXA’s Akatsuki, ESA-JAXA’s BepiColombo, and ESA’s EnVision. Experience with analysis of telescope or spacecraft data like images or spectra is desired, and good knowledge of radiative transfer models is preferred. The successful applicants will have opportunities to mentor internship students in PAG. Collaboration with national and international teams will be strongly supported.

Four positions are available.

Two Senior Researcher position: Applicants must have research experience in planetary atmospheric science (or equivalent field) for 5 years or more after their Ph.D. The initial duration of the position is two years with possible extension for up to three additional years.

Two Postdoctoral Research Fellow position: Applicants must have obtained a Ph.D. within the 5 years prior to March 1st, 2023, in the field of planetary science, atmospheric sciences, astronomy, physics, or a related field. The initial duration of the position is two years with possible extension for one additional year. The gross annual salary is 60 million KRW.

The starting date of the positions is negotiable, but not earlier than March 1st, 2023. Relocation expenses to move to Korea will be reimbursed (one way).
