Call for Papers

This symposium is being held to commemorate the late Professor Sydney Chapman whose pioneering studies in geomagnetism contributed greatly to our present understanding of the magnetosphere. The subject emphasis will be the dynamic magnetosphere, the physics of its changing state, the detection and prediction of such changes, and the important influence of the magnetospheric motions upon the earth's environment. Topics for presentationare to include the magnetospheric interaction with the solar wind, the bow shock, magnetopause, cusps, tail formation, current sheets, plasma sheet, plasmasphere, and substorm dynamics. The meetings will be held at the NOAA Environmental Research Laboratory auditoriums, 325 Broadway, Boulder, Colorado.
