This workshop will focus on optimizing ground-based spectroscopic observations of asteroids in support of ESA's Gaia mission, by gathering active researchers from around the world. Our primary aim is to develop a coordinated program of asteroid spectroscopy complementary to Gaia's observations.
Venue
The workshop will be held at "La maison du Séminaire" hotel in Nice, France, on June 6 & 7, 2013, and hosted by the Observatoire de la Côte d'Azur. This workshop is sponsored by the European Science Foundation's GREAT program, the Observatoire de la Côte d'Azur and the University of Central Florida. More local information can be found at the following URL: http://assg2013.sciencesconf.org/resource/page/id/3.
Note: Participants are responsible for making reservation for their own accommodation (note that number of room is limited at La maison du seminaire, so we recommend not to wait, as 39 rooms are garanteed for reservation before February 15th!).
