*Invite review, **Invited talk
In addition, there will be poster presentations associated with the Focus Meeting. Posters should not be larger than DIN A0 with portrait format. Posters will be on display at least for the days of the meeting, and will be located as close to your meeting room as feasible.For the first time tools for e-poster presentations will be provided, i.e. posters on large screens. For these one has to upload a poster file (e.g. pdf) at the venue as for the oral presentations. The touch screens allow searches by various categories, e.g. by authors, and more complex presentation facilities. Templates will be provided soon (from the IAU GA conference website).
