Splinter meeting SOL
The Solar System - our astrosphere: from space physics to astrophysics
Conveners: Horst Fichtner, Alexander Warmuth
In our solar system, many physical phenomena and processes can be observed
that are of a fundamental astrophysical relevance. The heliosphere can be
studied in great detail by remote sensing and is the only astrophysical
system that is accessible to in situ observations. Thus, its study provides
us with valuable insights that can also be applied to other astrophysical
scenarios. In this session, we will discuss this relationship between space
and astrophysics in order to see how we can transfer the knowledge gained
from our local neighborhood to a wider astrophysical context. Among the
topics that will be addressed are:
- particle acceleration and transport
- pick-up ions in the heliosphere and AGNs
- magnetic fields
- planets and exoplanets
- local and general interstellar medium
- interplanetary and interstellar dust
In each case examples from the solar system and from astrophysics will be disccused.
