Rome - Pescara, Italy

This seminar is organized to accelerate information interchange between Korean and Italian astrophysicists on new and hot topics on the subject. Especially for this year we want to exchange recent developments on modern astrophysics. Furthermore, this seminar will improve the cultural understanding between two countries. Especially this seminar will remarkably improve the understanding the origin of gamma ray bursts(GRB) and the X-ray astronomy with hot discussions between active young scientists of both countries. Furthermore, the exchange of new ideas about numerical methods for astrophysics will be basis for realistic large scale simulations.
