We are pleased to announce the IV Argentine-Brazilian Meeting on Gravitation, Astrophysics and Cosmology (GrACo IV), to be held in Buenos Aires, Argentina, from April 22 to 24, 2020.
RATIONALE
Research on Gravitation, Astrophysics, and Cosmology in Argentina and Brazil has reached a substantial degree of development. The main goal of the GrACo series of meetings is to stimulate and reinforce the collaboration between these two well-established scientific communities with the intention to undertake long-term joint research programs and to continue fostering the current collaborations.
The first meeting was held in Foz do Iguaçu, Brazil, in October 2011; the second meeting was held in Buenos Aires, Argentina, in April 2014; the third meeting was held in Rio de Janeiro, Brazil, in April 2016. The balance of participation between Brazilians and Argentinians are a proof of the importance and the support from both scientific communities to this series of meeting, encompassing a wide range of topics, that offered a complete panorama of the research lines of both communities. The organization of the fourth meeting of the GrACo series aims at strengthening the links between both communities, to continue fostering the effort for long-term collaborations, by fully involving a larger number of researchers and students in the discussions. It would be enough free time to encourage interaction and discussion between the participants which are very welcome to present their current researchs.
