           ANNOUNCEMENT FOR  the "CERES 2001" Workshop

                 Astrometry and Physics of Minor Planets
                       from Observational Networks

        to be held in Paris, France  on October 9-12 , 2001

=====================================================================

A workshop dedicated to the bicentenary of the discovery of Ceres by
Piazzi is proposed to be held in October 2001 in Paris, France,
organized
by the Institut de mecanique celeste / Observatoire de Paris.

This workshop plans to gather professional and amateur astronomers
interested in asteroids and more generally in small bodies of the solar
system, modeling motions, studying physical properties of these objects
and observing through networks. The goal of this workshop is also to
review the techniques used at present time for the observations of
asteroids. The proposed topics of the workshop are:

   * Astrometric observations of the asteroids: towards a better
accuracy

   * Prediction and observation of stellar occultations by asteroids:
          increasing the efficiency of the observers networks

   * Photometric observations of asteroids: shape and spin axis
determination

   * Satellites of asteroids, binary asteroids: towards the detection of
new 
     systems

   * Observation of other Solar System small bodies

   * Networks of observers: what to expect from new technologies?
