A Workshop
Energy Transfer and Conversion Inside Magnetospheres
was arranged by the Centre for Dynamical Processes and Structure Formation and took place in Uppsala on May 22, 2008.We, at the Swedish Institute of Space Physics, Uppsala and Department of Astronomy and Space Physics, Uppsala University, organized a one-day workshop on the topic of "Energy transfer and conversion inside magnetospheres". The workshop was in association with the PhD thesis defence of Lisa Rosenqvist.
The workshop started in Akademihotellet, Uppsala, at 9:30.
