Workshop in honor of Dr. Oskar Steiner

June 13-14, 2025, Muralto, Organized by IRSOL, Workshop website

An international workshop was organized to honor scientific achievements of Dr. Oskar Steiner, former leader of the IRSOL group working on MHD numerical simulations of the solar and stellar atmospheres: “Pathways to and from the Sun with OSKAR (Outstanding Simulations based on Knowledge, Algorithms, and Research)”. Topics ranged from in-depth research in solar physics to applications in teaching physics related to everyday life, for example, with a cup of coffee, and some reflections on the borderline between science and philosophy.
