Approximately 500 astronomers and space scientists will gather at the University of Glasgow for the RAS National Astronomy Meeting, the UK’s largest professional astronomy conference.

NAM 2010 is held in conjunction with the UK Solar Physics (UKSP) and Magnetosphere Ionosphere and Solar-Terrestrial Physics (MIST) meetings.

At NAM 2010 scientists will present new research across the fields of astronomy, space science, solar and solar-terrestrial physics, including the evolution of massive stars, dark matter, the role of high-energy particles, explosions on the Sun and in the distant Universe and the prospects for astronomy with a new generation of giant telescopes.

The conference is principally sponsored by the Royal Astronomical Society (RAS), the Science and Technology Facilities Council (STFC) and the University of Glasgow.
