DESCRIPTION:Speakers: Dagmara Oszkiewicz (Adam Mickiewicz University)\n"Th
 e “Space Workshop Days” project is a regional STEM outreach initiative
  bringing modern astronomy\, space science\, and technology directly to se
 condary-school students across Greater Poland\, Poland. Funded by the Loca
 l Government of the Greater Poland Region and coordinated by the Earth and
  Space Foundation in collaboration with Adam Mickiewicz University and Poz
 nań University of Technology\, the project comprises seven full-day educa
 tional events reaching approximately 630–840 students aged 14–19.\n\nA
  central element of the programme is the promotion of the Vera C. Rubin Ob
 servatory and its Legacy Survey of Space and Time (LSST). Through hands-on
  activities using Rubin Comet Catchers\, students work with astronomical i
 mages and learn how large-scale sky surveys can be used to discover and st
 udy comets and other Solar System objects. Complementary workshops introdu
 ce satellite Earth observation using Sentinel data\, robotics\, programmin
 g\, and automation.\n\nBy connecting authentic scientific data with practi
 cal activities and direct interaction with researchers\, the project intro
 duces students to contemporary astronomy and highlights educational and ca
 reer opportunities in STEM and the space sector. Particular emphasis is pl
 aced on reaching young people outside major academic centres and increasin
 g awareness of LSST and data-driven astronomy throughout the Greater Polan
 d region."\n\nhttps://events.ncbj.gov.pl/event/502/contributions/2271/

SUMMARY:The HYADES Mission in the LSST Era

DESCRIPTION:Speakers: Szymon Ryszkowski (Jagiellonian University)\nThe ori
 gin of Earth's water and its distribution throughout the Solar System rema
 in among the key questions in modern planetary science. The planned Hydrog
 en and Deuterium Survey (HYADES) space mission will address these question
 s through highly sensitive observations of water in small Solar System bod
 ies\, enabling the detection of even trace amounts of water\, as well as m
 easurements of the D/H ratio in water-rich comets to investigate its origi
 n and evolution. LSST is expected to increase the number of known small So
 lar System bodies by nearly an order of magnitude\, significantly expandin
 g the sample of known main-belt comets and increasing the discovery rate o
 f interstellar objects. These discoveries will provide HYADES with a much 
 larger and more diverse pool of potential observational targets\, opening 
 new opportunities to search for water in previously unexplored populations
 . Furthermore\, LSST's high sensitivity and regular observing cadence will
  enable the detection of fainter cometary activity and the monitoring of i
 ts evolution over time. Earlier identification of potential targets could 
 be particularly valuable for HYADES\, allowing observations to be planned 
 during periods of peak activity and under the most favorable observing con
 ditions. We will discuss the opportunities that LSST will open up for the 
 HYADES mission.\n\nhttps://events.ncbj.gov.pl/event/502/contributions/2270

SUMMARY:4MOST-Rubin few-hundred-megaparsec Hubble-Lemaitre analysis with m
 inimal model dependence

DESCRIPTION:Speakers: Boudewijn Roukema ( Institute of Astronomy\, Nicolau
 s Copernicus University )\nThe goal of this Hubble-Lemaitre flow analysis 
 is to measure the cosmological line element with as few prior model assump
 tions as possible.  The aim will be to use 4MOST followups of LSST-Rubin s
 upernovae type Ia (SNe Ia) light curve analyses together with complementar
 y surveys to infer cosmological parameters for the local few\nhundred mega
 parsecs of our Universe with as little dependence on model parameters as p
 ossible.  This approach aims to make no cosmological assumptions beyond th
 e assumption that the Universe is a 4-Lorentzian pseudo-Riemannian manifol
 d satisfying the Einstein equation everywhere. This is a less restrictive 
 hypothesis than modelling via the usual Friedmann-Lemaitre-Robertson-Walke
 r (FLRW) line element.\n\nhttps://events.ncbj.gov.pl/event/502/contributio
