Poster

IPM School of Astronomy and the Iranian National Observatory (INO) announce a symposium on "Mid-Sized Telescopes: Science and Instrumentation" in Kish Island in Persian Gulf, December 20-21, 2010. 
The aim of the symposium is to discuss front-line science return from the mid-sized telescopes, including new and innovative instrumentation and effective operation for such telescopes. The symposium will address the question as what the observatories need to do with the current mid-sized telescopes when the extremely large telescopes start their operation. Topics include: science objectives, innovative instrumentation, surveys and observatory operations.
The meeting is organized by IPM School of Astronomy and the Iranian National Observatory project which aims at a construction of a 3.4m optical telescope currently being designed.
