Introduction

The 15th International Symposium on Origin of Matter and Evolution of Galaxies (OMEG15) will be held at the Yukawa Institute, Kyoto University in July 2--5, 2019. This symposium is a part of the series that started in 1988. Recent OMEG symposiums were held at Tsukuba, Japan (2013), Beijing, China (2015), and Daejeon, Korea (2017).

The OMEG15 symposium will provide a forum for researchers from various fields such as nuclear physics, particle physics, astronomy, astrophysics, earth and planetary physics to discuss origin of matter and evolution of universe.

Schedule & Venue

Kyoto is located about 2.5 hours from Tokyo using the Shinkansen express train, 1.5 hours from the KANSAI International airport (KIX).

The main topics covered by the OMEG15 symposium are:

  1. Big Bang Cosmology and Primordial Nucleosynthesis
  2. First Generation Stars and Galactic Chemical Evolution
  3. Astronomical Observations with Light, X-Ray, Gamma-Ray, and Cosmic-Ray
  4. Stellar Evolutions and Hydrostatic Burning Processes
  5. Nuclear Structure and Reaction for Astrophysics

Accommodation

There are many hotels in Kyoto. The participants are encouraged to book the hotel by themselves. A list of the hotels is available at https://www.yukawa.kyoto-u.ac.jp/en-GB/contents/guide/hotels. We recommend participants to book early as possible. Several rooms are reserved for the participants at the guest house of the Yukawa Institute (Kitashirakawa Gakusha, 2,500 or 3,300 JPY/night), at the Shirankaikan Annex (6,800 JPY/night), and at Hotel Gimmond Kyoto (7,200--11,200 JPY/night). The participants will be able to request the room at Kitashirakawa Gakusha, Shirankaikan Annex or Hotel Gimmond Kyoto on the online registration. However, the number of rooms are limited, therefore, leave the assignment to the organizers if the number of applicants exceeds the number of rooms.

Application for the hotel arrangement by YITP has been closed.

Financial Supports

A limited amount of financial support will be provided to students and researchers at their early-stage career to encourage their participation in the OMEG15 symposium. We expect to offer limited support to fully or partially cover domestic travel and local expenses based on availability of funds. Participants will be able to apply for the support on the online registration.

Application for the financial support has been closed.
