The Dublin Institute for Advanced Studies is delighted to host this conference in September 2024 in the West of Ireland to honour the career of Professor Tom Ray. It will also be a great chance to bring together experts within the star formation community in the picturesque west of Ireland in the shadow of Croagh Patrick.

In the celebration conference 'Jets and Young Stars: the Passage from Discovery to JWST and Beyond', we will embark on an exploration of the birth of stars, focusing our attention on understanding jets and winds and their impact on star and planet formation.

Organised by

The Dublin Institute for Advanced Studies (DIAS) conducts advanced studies exploring big questions of the 21 century and beyond. Its research gains insights into Celtic society and its legacy; progresses our understanding of our island, our planet and the universe; and deciphers the underpinning mathematical principles of nature.

The Institute leads Ireland’s participation in a number of international and global initiatives that focus on big unanswered questions for mankind.

When it was founded in 1940, DIAS was the world’s second-only institute for advanced studies – and the first such institute in Europe. For 80 years, it has pushed the boundaries of discovery and, today, it is a globally-embedded institution that attracts high-calibre researchers from all over the world in its core disciplines of Celtic Studies, Theoretical Physics, Astrophysics and Geophysics. DIAS Dunsink Observatory is a designated European site of historical significance for physics.
