Magnetic helicity has been intensively studied concerning the observation, dynamo theory and many other relevant academic areas. This meeting would like to invite solar physicists who are active in the observational and theoretical researches on the helicity, to make deep discussions on some relevant “hot” issues.
Topics to be discussed:
To facilitate the discussion, the daily program will be formatted, according to the discussion topics, into 30-minutes invited talks and one 60-minutes topical discussion in the morning and one in the afternoon. Contributed poster papers are encouraged. Each day, about 60 minutes will be allotted for poster viewing.
