ESLAB is an regular Symposium organised by the Science and Operations Department in the European Space Agency’s Directorate of Science. The ESLAB Symposia have been held since 1966 having as main objective to foster scientific cooperation.
Following the previous last two Heliophysics in Europe meetings, we will cover ESA Heliophysics missions across the various directorates and then dedicate the rest of the week to specific topics of interest to the European Heliophysics Community (EHC) (See EHC web page and publication)
The aim of this meeting is to bring together the broad range of topics that make up the Heliophysics discipline, with a particular emphasis on the cross-cutting science that connects them. In addition to scientific discussions, the meeting will also highlight developments in instrumentation, tools, and current and future missions, and several other topics that are of interest to the community.
As in previous editions, contributed work will be presented via posters and rapid-fire talks. These formats are designed to stimulate conversation and help focus the meeting on interactive elements such as discussion panels, unconference sessions, and dedicated discussions on topics relevant to the European Heliophysics community (EHC). These will include proposal writing, collaborations with industry, mission development, tools and data, sustainability, outreach, and science communication. There will also be a dedicated session the EHC itself and how to get involved.
We invite you to submit abstracts within the following topics:
- Topic 1: Cross-cutting science in the heliosphere and beyond
- Topic 2: Putting Science into Space Weather
- Topic 3: Methods, missions, tools, and instrumentation
- Topic 4: Open topic (contributions not covered by the above)
We aim to have a hybrid meeting, at least making the talks available online.
Please go to the webpage to register (deadline 31 July 2026) and submit and abstract (deadline 30 June 2026).
The workshop will be held at ESA ESTEC in the Netherlands. Registration is mandatory and includes several questions to enable access to the site. You are advised to register early.
