Dear Colleagues,
 
Registration and abstract submission are now open for the 7th Solar  
Information Processing Workshop which will take place in  La Roche-en- 
Ardenne, Belgium, during 18-21 August 2014. The meeting is organized by the  
Solar-Terrestrial Centre of Excellence and the Royal Observatory of Belgium. 
  
Details on the program, venue, registration, abstract submission  and  
accommodation are  available on the meeting website:   
http://www.stce.be/sipworkshop2014/  

** Financial support for students and early post-docs is available **
  
*Important dates* 
15 May 2014 : Request for financial support (with abstract) 
15 June 2014: Abstract submission and early registration  
18-21 August 2014: Workshop 

The goal of this series of workshops is to stimulate communication between  
different communities (solar and space scientists, statisticians, and data  
processing experts) in order to address the data analysis issues of solar 
and   heliopsheric missions. Experts from space physics and data processing  
communities will jointly address topics of interest: 
  
Topic 1: Origin of variability and prediction of solar wind. 
Invited speakers: Prof. William Matthaeus, Dr Khurom Kiyani  
  
Topic 2: Optimal combination of in-situ and remote sensing data, in preparation of  
Solar Orbiter and Solar Probe Plus mission 
Invited speakers: Dr Christian Mostl, Dr Tim Howard  
  
Topic 3: How well can we predict solar eruptions (flares, CME arrival, SEP  
arrival) and geomagnetic disturbances? 
Invited Speakers: Dr Graham Barnes, Prof. Pierre Dupont 
  
Topic 4: Tracking of small scale magnetic features and its applications  
Invited Speaker:  Dr Thomas Corpetti 
  
Topic 5: Power laws in solar physics: observations and proper estimation 
Invited Speakers: Prof Clare Parnell,  Prof. David Van Dyk  
  
We look forward to welcoming you in La Roche-en-Ardenne this summer! 

Véronique Delouille.
