Large-scale Magnetic Fields in the Universe -

. .

Résumé :
Dr. Rainer Beck is senior researcher at the Max Planck Institute for Radio Astronomy in Bonn, Germany. He has been working on galactic magnetic fields since the 1970s, published about 400 papers and organized the first IAU conference on this topic in 1989. He is Principle Investigator of the LOFAR Key Science Project on Cosmic Magnetism and member of the Science Working Group of the Square Kilometre Array.

Prof. Andr? Balogh is Emeritus Professor of Space Physics in Imperial College London and a past Director of the International Space Science Institute in Bern, Switzerland. He has participated in numerous scientific space missions since the mid?1960s and has been a Principal Investigator on the Ulysses and Cluster missions. His principal research interest is the observation and study of magnetic fields in the heliosphere and in planetary environments. He is author and co?author of over 450 scientific publications and editor of seven books on solar system topics. Prof. Andrei Bykov is head of the High Energy Astrophysics laboratory at the Ioffe Institute of Physics and Technology at the Russian Academy of Sciences...
