The aim of this school is to provide the attendees with a background in modern High Angular Resolution observational astrophysics, illustrating how top-quality results have been and can be obtained for the environment of Young Stellar Objects (YSOs).

The lecture program includes presentations on:

  • observing from space with HST and in the future with JWST
  • observing from the ground with Adaptive Optics
  • use of Interferometers at millimeter and infrared wavelengths
  • Spectro-astrometry

Image analysis and spectral diagnostic procedures to interpret the data will also be discussed. A special session on HAR studies of the inner regions of circumstellar disks, which play a fundamental role in jet launching, is also foreseen. Finally, two sessions on writing papers and proposals as well as developing public outreach skills will be provided.
