———————————–
from Andrew Jackson (ETH Zurich)
To celebrate the 50th anniversary of the publication of the seminal work “An Introduction to Magnetohydrodynamics” (Longman’s, 1967)
by P.H. Roberts, there will be a 2 day conference in London.
This conference will take place at the Royal Astronomical Society, Piccadilly, London on 16-17 November, 2017.
The honoured guest will be
Paul Roberts FRS
who will also speak.
It is fifty years since Paul Roberts FRS set down the fundamentals of magnetohydrodynamics (MHD) in his seminal book. New results have recently emerged from numerical dynamos, theoretical analyses, planetary missions to Mercury and Jupiter and liquid metal experiments. Here we wish to bring together theoreticians, numericists and experimentalists to discuss the frontiers of dynamo theory and fluid flows in
planetary contexts.
There will be a series of invited talks.
Financial support
In order for Research Students and Early Career Postdocs to attend, there is a limited number
of registration waivers available. Please write to A Jackson with a short case for support by 11 August.
Poster submissions are requested (limited in number due to space), on all topics concerned with fluid dynamics and MHD.
These can be submitted at the same time as registration.

The meeting is organised with the support of the Royal Astronomical Society.
