Description of the School:

All celestial bodies emit in the infrared, and half of the radiation of galaxies lies in this wavelength range. This domain is crucial for studies of the solar system, of stars at the beginning and the end of their lifes, of interstellar matter, of nearby as well as very distant galaxies. Recent developments of observational techniques have been tremendous; one airborne observatory and two satellites, IRAS and ISO, have been dedicated to this domain, and many more are to come.

The purpose of this school is to attract a new community of scientists, from graduate students to senior researchers, to this field of resarch. They will learn the bases of infrared astronomy, and how to use the archival data of ISO. This will help to prepare themselves for the many future infrared and submillimeter space facilities: ODIN (launched in 1998), SWAS (1998), WIRE (1998), MAP (2000), SOFIA (2001), SIRTF (2001), IRIS (2002), PLANCK SURVEYOR (2004), FIRST (2006) etc.

The School is open to graduate students and researchers. Attendance is limited to 50 students.


The general lectures

General presentation of infrared astronomy : M. Harwit (USA)

The Infrared Space Observatory (ISO): M. Kessler (ASE, Spain)

Data Analysis with ISOCAM: J.-L. Starck (CEA, France)

ISO observations of solar-system objects: T. Encrenaz (Observatoire de Paris, France)

Stars and galactic structure : H. Habing (Leiden Observatory, The Netherlands)

Interstellar matter and star formation: F. Boulanger and P. Cox (IAS, France)

Star formation: A. Natta (Arcetri Observatory, Italy)

Normal galaxies : G. Helou (IPAC, Cal Tech, USA)

Active galaxies : Dietmar Kunze (MPE, Germany)

Cosmology : J.-L. Puget (IAS, France)


The practical works

In addition to these general courses, time will be reserved for practical work on actual data from the Infrared Space Observatory (ISO), using workstations and appropriate softwares. A number of more specific lectures will be given, either by invited speakers or school attendees. In particular, future facilities for infrared and submillimeter astronomy will be presented.
