Thanks to everyone who took part in the CDHY Workshop on Gamma-Ray Loud Binaries hosted by Dublin Institute for Advanced Studies (DIAS) this autumn!
The CDHY workshop on “Gamma-Ray Loud Binaries”, held from 7–10 October 2024, focused on the recent advances made in the rapidly expanding class of binary systems that reveal themselves as extreme gamma-ray emitters. The scientific topics covered the latest gamma-ray observations, from GeV to PeV energies of gamma-ray loud binaries, binary pulsars, microquasars, novae and colliding-wind binaries. The 4-day programme of invited and contributed talks discussed the multi-wavelength characteristics of these sources, and their theoretical and phenomenological interpretation. As part of the meeting, the programme included an afternoon celebrating the contributions of Prof. Felix Aharonian to high-energy astrophysics and to DIAS since his appointment in 2006.
- Location: Fitzpatrick Castle Hotel in South Dublin, as well as at DIAS Dunsink Observatory in West Dublin (read more about the location).
- Registration: in-person and virtual registration is now closed.
