The University of Alabama in Huntsville, Center for Space Plasma and Aeronomic Research and NASA Marshall Space Flight Center announce the 11th Annual International Astrophysics Conference scheduled for March 19-23, 2012 at the Westin Mission Hills Resort & Spa in Palm Springs/Rancho Mirage area. (18 March - Evening Welcome Reception and Registration).

The meeting entitled "Space Weather: The Space Radiation Environment", will follow the same format as before with 25-minute invited presentations punctuated by selected 40-minute talks that will explore various themes in greater detail. The meeting will focus on basic physical processes that underlie and impact space weather: magnetic fields and energetic particle processes at the sun and the interplanetary medium; particle acceleration and transport (solar energetic particles, anomalous and galactic cosmic rays); energetic particles in the Earth’s environment (magnetosphere, radiation belts, upper atmosphere); effect of energetic particles on systems and humans; and space weather prediction modeling.

Please contact the Scientific Organzing Committee to express your interest in attending this conference.
