Conference

Motivation:
Prof. Paolo Farinella (1953-2000) and Prof. Andrea Milani (1948-2018) developed outstanding research at the University of Pisa, in the field of physics and dynamics of natural and artificial celestial bodies. Their work had a deep influence in the understanding of the dynamics of the small bodies of the Solar System, of the motion of planetary satellites and of the application to the exploration of  planetary bodies through space missions. This conference, devoted to their memory, will bring together experts in physics and dynamics of celestial bodies, and will highlight Paolo and Andrea’s heritage into the new generation of researchers in their area of knowledge.
