Since its first observation in 1915, gravitational
lensing has become a major astrophysical endeavour.
The goal of
this meeting will be to provide a view of the latest scientific results
in
all research areas, from cosmological to galactic scales, with the
topics
to be covered including
Lensing by Large Scale Structure
Cluster Lensing
Galaxies and Strong Lensing
Galaxies and Weak Lensing
Lenses as Gravitational Telescopes
Cosmological microlensing
Galactic microlensing and the search for planets
Expected registration costs:
We are seeking to keep costs to a minimum
and propose a registration fee of $350 (Aus) to cover local
administration,
lunches, snacks and a conference dinner at a local restaurant. More
details
will be available at registration. Hotels will
have to be booked by the participants (although there are
many available in this tourist city).
