The role of multiplicity in star and planet formation is at the forefront of
current research and debate. This workshop aims to bring together observers
and theorists to review the latest findings and stimulate discussion. The
focus will be on low-mass star formation.
Subtopics include:
* multiplicity surveys of protostars, T Tauri stars and brown dwarfs
* multiplicity and Initial Mass Function
* multiples as testbeds for evolutionary models
* binarity vs. disks and jets
* planet formation in multiple systems
Our goal is to have an informal meeting, limited to 60 participants, with
lots of short talks and time for interaction.
Dates: Wednesday, 16 May 2007 - Friday, 18 May 2007
Location: University of Toronto, Ontario, Canada
