To get started with this blank TiddlyWiki, you'll need to modify the following tiddlers:
* SiteTitle & SiteSubtitle: The title and subtitle of the site, as shown above (after saving, they will also appear in the browser title bar)
* MainMenu: The menu (usually on the left)
* DefaultTiddlers: Contains the names of the tiddlers that you want to appear when the TiddlyWiki is opened
You'll also need to enter your username for signing your edits: <<option txtUserName>>

These InterfaceOptions for customising TiddlyWiki are saved in your browser

Your username for signing your edits. Write it as a WikiWord (eg JoeBloggs)

It was decided not to publish edited proceedings.

However, an article is in the process of being written to summarise the main results and issues discussed at the workshop (Josselin et al., in preparation). It will cite all contributors to the workshop, thereby refering to their talks/posters, which are available from the [[Presentations Archive]].

The scientific programme (finalised on February 3, 2009) is available as a PDF file [[here|Programme_3fev09.pdf]].

Abstracts are available [[here|Abstracts.pdf]].

Because the attendance is stricly limited to a maximum of 50 participants, we request interested colleagues to submit their requests as early as possible.
New requests for participation, oral contributions and finantial support will receive full attention if received before Decembre 18, 2008. We will reply as early as possible after that date.

''Whether you are already on our lists or are submitting a first request of participation, please do fill in the simple registration form provided [[here|Registration_Form.txt]]'' (once) and send it to :

lancon@astro.u-strasbg.fr

There will be no registration fee.

A workshop around causes and consequences of differing evolutionary paths.

TiddlyWiki is the creation of Jeremy Ruston who was kind enough to share it under an Open Source License.

A TiddlyWiki is like a blog because it's divided up into neat little chunks, but it encourages you to read it by hyperlinking rather than sequentially: if you like, a non-linear blog analogue that binds the individual microcontent items into a cohesive whole. There are also several other adaptations of TiddlyWiki like Qwiki Web that were written by other developers based on earlier versions of TiddlyWiki.

*Here are some links to some other important TiddlyWiki information:
**[[MainFeatures|http://www.tiddlywiki.com#MainFeatures]]

* ''AGB stars, super-AGB stars, red supergiants and related objects.'' 
** Which evolutionary path to each of these categories?
* ''Predicted properties from evolutionary models. Model assumptions and their effects.''
** Frontiers in mass between categories.
** Locations in the HR diagram. Surface abundances. Variability.
** Final fates. 
*** Yields, supernovae, Ne/O white dwarfs, etc.
** Binarity, rotation and other effects
* ''Predicted and observed atmospheric properties. Model assumptions and their effects.''
** Locations in colour-magnitude diagrams. 
** Predicted spectra. Spectral types and luminosity classes.
*** Effects of abundances; micro/macro-tubulence; pulsation.
** Molecules. Atmospheres vs. molspheres.
* ''Populations, observational surveys.''
* ''Future prospects.''

The workshop will take place in the main building of [[Strasbourg Observatory|http://astro.u-strasbg.fr]].

Postal address :
''11, rue de l'Universit&eacute; - 67000 Strasbourg'' 
Telephone from abroad : +33 - 3 90 24 24 10
Telphone from within France : 03 90 24 24 10

The Observatory is located a pleasant 20-25 min walk away from the spectacular cathedral that marks the old city centre of Strasbourg. You may also use the efficient tram lines, in which case you should look for stop "Observatoire" on line C (20-30 minutes from the train station, including waiting time and 1 change).

On [[this map|PlanStrasbourg_labels.pdf]], you will find the Observatory near the middle, and the city centre on the left, on an island in the river Ill. Tram lines are marked in magenta. The train station is on the left edge of the map. The Rhine river on the right (East) sets the border between France and Germany.

A high resolution map of the tram and bus lines is available [[here|http://www.cts-strasbourg.fr/Portals/0/PDF/plans/Plan.pdf]].

The post-main sequence evolution of stars of intermediate or large masses is notoriously complex. In the recent past, a number of workshops and meetings have focused on either the Asymptotic Giant Branch of intermediate mass stars, or the evolution of massive stars. But how well is the boundary between these categories of objects defined? How would an observer proceed to classify stars into one or the other category? How do objects near the boundary evolve, die, and contribute to the chemical evolution of their environment?  

This 3-day workshop has provided a venue for exchanges about our current understanding of stars //near the transition// between the regimes usually refered to as intermediate masses on one hand, high masses on the other. This points towards initial masses between about 5 and about 12 solar masses, but comparisons with properties outside this range were also made.

30 [[Participants]] from Austria, Belgium, France, Germany, Italy, the Netherlands, Switzerland, the United Kingdom and the United States took part in the workshop.  As shown in the [[Programme]], quite some time was devoted to discussion, which led to fruitful confrontations between various fields of theory, and between theory and observations.

''NB :'' The [[Archive (all the talks and posters)]] provides access to all the presentations as well as a summary of the workshop.


This workshop was organized with the support of PNPS (Programme National de Physique Stellaire, CNRS, France).
