The developments over the past decades in high-resolution and multi-object spectroscopy have enabled transformative insights into stars, stellar systems and populations, our Galaxy, and extrasolar planets. In turn, these have triggered the construction of a new generation of powerful instruments that will characterise fainter and more distant systems with unprecedented detail and/or statistical power, opening new windows in our understanding of the exoplanet population, galactic archaeology, and fundamental physics. This conference will bring together communities working on instrumentation, stellar and exoplanet astrophysics, and chemical evolution, serving as a launchpad for reviewing the scientific landscape, new challenges, and future priorities.
Registration and Abstract Submission are Now Open for the ESO/INAF/OCA Joint Conference "Charting the Future of Stellar and Exoplanet Spectroscopy"
