Our understanding of the Wolf-Rayet phenomenon has undergone significant observational and theoretical progress in recent years. Sophisticated radiative transfer models are now routinely used to interpret the spectral signatures of Wolf-Rayet and related emission line stars, helping to deepen our understanding of their structure and, at the same time, their impact on the ISM. Photometric and spectroscopic surveys have substantially increased the observational sample of Galactic and Magellanic Cloud Wolf-Rayet stars. The recent detection of gravitational waves and the recognition of Wolf-Rayet stars as the potential progenitors of some merging black holes has reaffirmed the dominant role of massive star evolutionary processess in defining final products that are at the center of multi-messenger phenomena. Eight years after the Wolf-Rayet Workshop held 2015 in Potsdam, Germany, this conference continues the series of meetings specifically dedicated to Wolf-Rayet stars.
It is an opportune moment to bring together the experts in the field to discuss its recent progress, open issues, and future perspectives. The meeting is also aimed at encouraging more scientists to join the research efforts on Wolf-Rayet stars within the broader astrophysical context.
Abstract submission deadline: April 27th 2023
Early registration fee deadline: March 24th 2023
We will create a zoom session for participants attending from places outside
Morelia (Mexico). If you would like to give a talk remotely please specify on your
abstract submission or send a direct email to this email.
The zoom details will be shared a week before the conference.
