The
Working Group on Active B Stars has been allocated three hours (2
sessions) for a business and scientific meeting at the IAU General
Assembly in Prague, Czech Republic. The meeting is scheduled from
09:00-10:30 and 11:00-12:30 on Friday, August 18, 2006 in Club C at
the Congress Center. As usual the business meeting should be short,
leaving nearly 2.5 hours for scientific talks. If you would like to
present a talk during this meeting, please send us a title for your
presentation ASAP. We welcome longer, research-oriented talks as well
as brief announcements or updates on current activities of interest to
the Working Group members. We envision presentations lasting from 5-30
minutes, including discussion. As in the past, we plan to publish the
proceedings of the business and scientific meetings in the Be Star
Newsletter.
To appear in the Program Book for the IAU GA, the final program must
be submitted to the IAU by the end of June, so please let us know soon
if you would like to give a talk. As evidenced at the GA in Sydney,
publication of the program is quite important as it is likely to draw
attendees who are not currently members of our Working Group. Please
submit your title and the requested time for your presentation to:
benews@mucen.usc.edu.
We are looking forward to seeing you in Prague in August.
