Scientific Programme, Workshop Schedule, and Projects
In the first week (lecture week) two types of instruction units were
offered. In the morning hours, lectures (60 minutes each) addressed a broad
spectrum of issues ranging from spacecraft missions and instrumentation to
data analysis techniques and modeling. The methods and tools introduced in
these lectures were practised in hands-on computer sessions that took place
in a computer room equipped with 26 Linux workstations. Various software
environments such as IDL and Matlab were offered.
The lecture notes and
computer assignments
(including software and data) are still online. To find the
scientific programme and the workshop schedule with active links and

A pdf version of the final workshop
schedule is also available.

In the second week (project week) the workshop participants
formed groups and worked on data analysis and modeling projects
related to the subjects of the workshop. On Thursday, 14 June 2007,
the groups presented their results in the context of the STIMM-2 workshop
that took place from 12-16 June 2007 in the same location.

Project topics
- Auroral Knight relation using electric field and particle data
- What are the proper solar wind inputs for predicting geomagnetic indices?
- Determination of the macroscopic parameters of the Earth's magnetopause
- Estimation of the IMF disturbances propagation delay time
- Test of collisionless transport equations in the solar wind
Afterwards, the STIINTE participants had the opportunity to take part
in the STIMM-2 workshop.
