Revision as of 22:03, 11 June 2013

The topics this year include:

  • Status of Gaia - year of the launch!
  • Gaia alerts - how they work, what is the expected yield
  • Supernovae, microlensing, novae, CVs, AGN flares, and other targets for Gaia Alerts
  • Arrangements for the alerts follow-up and verification campaign in early 2014
  • Follow-up strategies
  • How to get involved in Gaia alerts follow-up networks?
  • Current/planned multi-wavelength transient surveys, including X-ray channels
  • Reports from tests on transient follow-up
  • Presentation of new potential partners for the follow-up network

Abstract Book is available here.
