First Announcement:<br class="">
<br class="">
GALAXY FORMATION IN HANGZHOU:<br class="">
Observations and Physics of AGN Feedback<br class="">
@ Xixi Hotel, Hangzhou, China<br class="">
October 9 - 13, 2023<br class="">
<br class="">
<br class="">
Supermassive black holes (SMBHs) lurk at the centers of almost all massive galaxies. <br class="">
How galaxies set the stage for the growth of SMBHs at their centers and how the <br class="">
SMBHs influence the evolution of galaxies internally or externally remain very uncertain.<br class="">
The primary objective of this conference is to gather recent extensive observational and <br class="">
theoretical studies of SMBH energy and momentum outputs in all forms and wave bands, <br class="">
and their possible effects on star formation, to reach as much factual consensus as possible. <br class="">
Interactions among observers and theorists are facilitated in the beautiful tranquility of <br class="">
Hangzhou towards reaching a consensual physical picture. It is hoped that a new physical <br class="">
understanding may tilt the current state of heavily parameterized SMBH feedback effects in <br class="">
cosmological simulations in a new direction.<br class="">
<br class="">
The registration fee will be $450 for non-students and $300 for students. <br class="">
We especially encourage recent graduates and other young researchers to attend!<br class=""><p class="">
Current information on the meeting will be maintained at the following site:</p>
<a href="https://agnfeedback2023.casconf.cn/" class="">https://agnfeedback2023.casconf.cn/</a><br class="">
<br class="">
The conference will cover three broad topics:<br class="">
1. Recent Observations of AGN Feedback<br class="">
2. Physics of AGN Feedback<br class="">
3. Algorithms and Implementation of AGN Feedback in Simulations and other methods.<br class="">
<br class="">
