标题： Astrophysical Dynamics 1999/2000: Merging Research and Education

摘要： 研讨会“天体物理动力学1999/2000”跟随了一个同名的高级研究课程，这两个活动均由我组织。 在本论文集的开幕论文中，我描述了这些活动，并记录了它们对当地机构学术生活的重要影响。 高级研究课程面向研究生、高级研究人员以及有良好物理和数学背景的有动力的本科生开放。 该课程涵盖了现代天体物理动力学研究中的多个跨学科问题，因此也对物理学家、数学家和工程师感兴趣。 主要主题是气体动力学，结合恒星动力学和等离子体物理来探讨。 该课程由专家就热门话题进行的平行研讨会补充，向广泛的科学界开放。 特别是，我做了关于小波的友好介绍，小波正日益成为不仅用于处理信号和图像，而且用于分析分形和湍流的强大工具，并有望在盘状星系的动力学建模中具有重要的应用。 研讨会向广泛的科学界开放。 实际上，出版了论文集的研讨会是我为高级研究课程提出的创新考试形式。 投稿经过同行评审，平均质量很高，在少数情况下特别高。 高级研究课程和研讨会共同激发了学生的极大热情，并欢迎了一百多人参与，这意味着比查尔姆斯理工大学和哥德堡大学的一般研究生课程多一个数量级的参与人数。 显示英文摘要

摘要： The workshop `Astrophysical Dynamics 1999/2000' followed a homonymous advanced research course, and both activities were organized by me. In this opening paper of the proceedings book, I describe them and document their strong impact on the academic life of the local institutions. The advanced research course was open to graduate students, senior researchers, and motivated under-graduate students with good background in physics and mathematics. The course covered several multi-disciplinary issues of modern research on astrophysical dynamics, and thus also of interest to physicists, mathematicians and engineers. The major topic was gas dynamics, viewed in context with stellar dynamics and plasma physics. The course was complemented by parallel seminars on hot topics given by experts in such fields, and open to a wide scientific audience. In particular, I gave a friendly introduction to wavelets, which are becoming an increasingly powerful tool not only for processing signals and images but also for analysing fractals and turbulence, and which promise to have important applications to dynamical modelling of disc galaxies. The workshop was open to a wide scientific audience. The workshop with published proceedings book was, as a matter of fact, the innovative form of exam that I proposed for the advanced research course. The contributions were refereed and their quality is high on average, exceptionally high in a few cases. The advanced research course and the workshop all together produced great enthusiasm in the students and welcomed the participation of a hundred different people, which means an order of magnitude more than an average graduate course at Chalmers University of Technology and G\"oteborg University.
