Dear Prof. Crippa,

I was wondering if you could forward this conference announcement to
students and postdocs in Basel who may be interested?

Many thanks,
Jonathan Ben-Artzi.

Dear colleague,

We are happy to announce the upcoming conference ``The Cauchy Problem
in Kinetic Theory: Recent Progress in Collisionless Models'', to be
held at Imperial College London, 7-11 September 2015.

This conference aims to bring together the top specialists in the
field of collisionless kinetic theory, along with promising young
mathematicians, to explore recent progress, identify important open
problems, and hopefully set a course for the next few years.

The field of collisionless kinetic theory has seen a revived interest
in recent years. This conference aims to harness this renewed interest
to generate momentum and attract young researchers to this field.

Some of the most influential results of the last decades are due to
Walter Strauss, Bob Glassey and Jack Schaeffer: three mathematical
generations. We will use this opportunity to mark their contributions
to this field. In particular, we shall mark Bob's 70th birthday, as
well as the 20th anniversary of the publication of his book ``The
Cauchy Problem in Kinetic Theory''.


Please forward this message widely.

Some funding, as well as the possibility of contributing talks, will
be available to young researchers. See the conference website for
details, where you can also register:
