The Many Faces of Centaurus A

Sunday 28 June 2009 to Friday 03 July 2009, The Mint, Sydney CBD

The international conference The Many Faces of Centaurus A aims at bringing together a broad range of astronomers and high-energy physicists that traditionally form separate research communities. The radio galaxy Centaurus A (NGC 5128) has attracted interest from across the international astrophysics and high-energy physics communities more than any other, yet this will be the first conference devoted to this intriguing source.

The abstract booklet of the conference is here (PDF file).
