<title>15th BONN workshop on the formation and evolution of neutron stars </title>
<description>&lt;p style="text-align:justify"&gt;&lt;span style="font-size:16px"&gt;&lt;strong&gt;RATIONALE&lt;/strong&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;br /&gt;
The BONN neutron star workshops aim to bring together observers and theoreticians to exchange and discuss new ideas related to neutron star research in a one-day workshop.&lt;/p&gt;

&lt;p style="text-align:justify"&gt;&amp;nbsp;&lt;/p&gt;

&lt;p style="text-align:justify"&gt;&lt;span style="font-size:16px"&gt;&lt;strong&gt;STRUCTURE OF THE MEETING&lt;/strong&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;br /&gt;
In the style of previous meetings, the workshop will start at 9:00 with a &amp;#39;news&amp;#39; session summarising highlights from pulsar, FRB and SNe research. There will be additional topical sessions related to the local environments of neutron stars. Each talk will last &lt;strong&gt;&lt;u&gt;12 minutes &lt;/u&gt;&lt;/strong&gt;(+ 3 minutes for the Q&amp;amp;A session).&amp;nbsp; At the end of the day there will be a wrap-up session, in which the day&amp;#39;s topics will be discussed. Lunches and coffee breaks are sponsored by the MPIfR. The conference dinner (optional, at ~18:30) is at your own expense.&lt;br /&gt;
&amp;nbsp;&lt;/p&gt;

&lt;p style="text-align:justify"&gt;&lt;strong&gt;SPECIAL TOPIC&amp;nbsp;&lt;/strong&gt;&lt;/p&gt;

&lt;p&gt;&lt;span style="color:#000080"&gt;&lt;span style="font-size:36px"&gt;&lt;strong&gt;Neutron stars and their local environments&lt;/strong&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/p&gt;

&lt;ul&gt;
	&lt;li&gt;Electron capture supernovae (SNe) and their possible outcomes;&lt;/li&gt;
	&lt;li&gt;The progenitors of ultra-light/ultra-massive neutron stars (NS);&lt;/li&gt;
	&lt;li&gt;Advances in SN&amp;nbsp;simulations and predictions (e.g. masses, kicks, spins, alignments etc.).&lt;/li&gt;
	&lt;li&gt;NS in binary systems (e.g. x-ray binaries, black hole (BH) +NS systems, spider systems, double NS systems, ...) and their formation scenarios;&lt;/li&gt;
	&lt;li&gt;Pulsar winds and magnetospheres;&lt;/li&gt;
	&lt;li&gt;Neutron stars in globular clusters;&lt;/li&gt;
	&lt;li&gt;Fast radio burst (FRB) localizations and constraints on their progenitors (e.g. SNe, magnetars, pulsars);&lt;/li&gt;
	&lt;li&gt;Propagation effects in FRB and pulsar signals (e.g. dispersion measure, rotation measure, scattering, scintillation, ...);&lt;/li&gt;
	&lt;li&gt;Neutron stars and FRBs as sources of GWs.&lt;/li&gt;
&lt;/ul&gt;

&lt;p&gt;&amp;nbsp;&lt;/p&gt;

&lt;p&gt;&amp;nbsp;&lt;/p&gt;

&lt;p&gt;&lt;strong&gt;&lt;span style="font-size:16px"&gt;TRANSPORT TO MPIFR/AIfA - BONN&lt;/span&gt;&lt;br /&gt;
From Bonn/Cologne Airport&lt;/strong&gt;&lt;/p&gt;

&lt;ul&gt;
	&lt;li&gt;Take airport bus to Bonn Central Station (Hbf). Buses leave every ~30min, cost 8.70 EUR.&lt;br /&gt;
	&amp;nbsp;- For more detailed information on the bus&amp;#39; schedule, take a look at the timetable available &lt;a href="http://www.swb-busundbahn.de/fileadmin/fahrplandateien/flughafenbus_sb60/sb60.pdf"&gt;here&lt;/a&gt;.&lt;/li&gt;
	&lt;li&gt;Take a taxi (~50-70 EUR)&lt;/li&gt;
&lt;/ul&gt;

&lt;p&gt;&lt;strong&gt;From Bonn central station (3 km): (busses leave every 10 min.)&lt;/strong&gt;&lt;/p&gt;

&lt;ul&gt;
	&lt;li&gt;Bus 610 (direction: Duisdorf Bahnhof), get off at &amp;quot;Immenburg Park&amp;quot;&lt;/li&gt;
	&lt;li&gt;Bus 611 (direction: Lessenich Sportplatz), get off at &amp;quot;Immenburg Park&amp;quot;&lt;br /&gt;
	-&amp;nbsp; A detailed view of the platform location of the busses is available&amp;nbsp;&lt;a href="http://www.swb-busundbahn.de/fileadmin/fahrplandateien/haltestellenlageplaene/u_Bonn_Hauptbahnhof_Omnibushof.pdf"&gt;&lt;u&gt;here&lt;/u&gt;&lt;/a&gt;.&lt;br /&gt;
	-&amp;nbsp; The bus ride from the Central Station to&amp;nbsp;AIfA/MPIfR costs 3.00 EUR (2.70 if payed via the SWB/VRS app).&lt;br /&gt;
	-&amp;nbsp;&amp;nbsp;Since June, a one-time fee, 9.00 EUR ticket allowing travel across all public transport networks (excluding high-speed trains) may be purchased. This ticket has a validity of one month, and may be bought/used between June 1st and August 31st. For all the details, which may change at any time,&amp;nbsp;please visit the following &lt;a href="https://www.bahn.com/en/offers/regional/9-euro-ticket-en"&gt;website&lt;/a&gt;. This ticket alone is&amp;nbsp;&lt;em&gt;not&lt;/em&gt;&amp;nbsp;valid for the Airport shuttle, for which you will need to add to your existing 9.00 EUR ticket a 3.40 EUR surchage (Zusglag).&lt;/li&gt;
	&lt;li&gt;Taxi (~10-15 EUR)&lt;/li&gt;
