March 22 - 25, 2021 | Virtual Workshop | #TRENDY3
Meeting Rationale
In this meeting we aim to explore the various observational and theoretical aspects of triple (multiple) evolution and dynamics, and the unique role played by triple (and hierarchical) systems in the:
(1) Evolution of stellar and planetary systems;
(2) Merger of compact objects;
(3) Formation of exotica.
The workshop aims to serve as a focal point for researchers working on triple (and hierarchical) systems on all scales, to connect theorists and observers, and to link together and share knowledge and tools between groups working on similar questions.
We will discuss the current state-of-the-art, identify open questions and find a way forward to answer them.
