Aims and Scope:Numerical simulations play vital parts in all the fields of astrophysics. This is partly because many astronomical phenomena are results of nonlinearly coupled multiple factors. The numerical simulations are powerful tools to elucidate the characters and rules of such nonlinear systems. They also serve as numerical experiments since real experiments are impossible in astrophysics. Thank to rapid increase in computational power, our numerical simulations have been sophisticated to achieve higher spatial resolution, wider dynamic range, and inclusion of many more factors and effects. The sophistication has enabled us to compare the simulations with observations in wider areas of astrophysics. This series of meetings, EANAM, have explored the frontiers of astrophysical numerical simulations. As in the former meetings, the scope of the meeting will encompass research fields involving numerical simulations of stars and planets on the small scale to cosmological structures on the large scale. Topics will include (but not limited to) the numerical astrophysics of hydrodynamics, magnetohydrodynamics, radiative transfer, and particle acceleration. In addition, there will also be a focus on computer science applications directed toward astrophysics including numerical methods, simulation data analysis, and high performance computing. The program consists of tutorial lectures, invited talks, contributed talks, and poster papers with brief oral presentations. We welcome active posdocs and graduate students. This meeting is aimed to stimulate numerical astrophysics in the East Asia.
