The purpose of this informal meeting is to gather knowledge and latest results about the modeling of interacting galaxies, and in particular the Antennae, from the groups of Munich (University Observatory), Vienna (Institute for Astronomy) and Strasbourg (Observatory). This meeting will enhance the collaboration between the three institutes and provide useful discussions for the three PhD thesis related to it.
The keyword for this meeting is: informal.

We encourage guests to join us for discussion on Tuesday (Monday would be too specific/internal/technical).
The meeting will take place in the new meeting room in the Cupola basement. It is not so easy to find so we should meet outside or in my office (first building on the right, just after the gate. Ring the "Observatoire" bell). The gate might be close in the night time and during the week-end. In that case, call me.
