ESA Science & Technology - ELSA school on the Science of Gaia

Start date: 19 Nov 2007
Address: Lorentz Center, Leiden, Netherlands

The aim of this workshop is to provide the participants with an extensive overview of the science of Gaia. The workshop is organized for the ELSA PhD students and post-docs but is open to participants from outside the network. ELSA is a Marie-Curie research training network with the primary goal to develop a new theoretical understanding of the conceptual, physical, and numerical aspects of space astrometry and turn this understanding into practical analysis tools which will form an essential contribution towards the Gaia data processing system.
