CSQCD2024 is the 10th international conference of the workshop series "Compact Stars in the QCD phase diagram" starting in 2001 (The past editions can be found at http://www.quarknova.ca/CSQCD.html). This workshop covers the following topics:
1) Neutron stars and related phenomena
a) Neutron star structure and equations of state
b) Supernovae and neutrinos
2) QCD phase diagram, the domain intermediate between nuclear and quark matter
3) Heavy ion collision and hadron spectroscopy for hadron structures and interactions
4) Numerical experiments for QCD-like theories
This workshop is held one week before a YITP long-term workshop "Hadrons and Hadron Interactions in QCD (HHIQCD2024)" (Oct. 14 - Nov. 15). CSQCD and HHIQCD have some overlap in topics but CSQCD is more inclined to astrophysical contexts. Topics in the 1st and 2nd weeks of HHIQCD are hadrons and hadron structures. The details can be found at https://www2.yukawa.kyoto-u.ac.jp/~hhiqcd2024/.

Note (as of Aug. 20): Kitashirakawa Gakusha (北白川学舎）is fully occupied. Please look for other hotels.
2) For participants who need invitation letters for visa application [countries or regions that require a visa to enter Japan: https://www.mofa.go.jp/j_info/visit/visa/index.html], please send requests to "csqcd_organizers@googlegroups.com" by Aug 20.
(For participants who need presentations to get approval of the travel from your institute: all the participants have chances to give presentations, oral or flash talk+poster.)
3) We have some budgets to support local expenses of young participants. If you request the support, please a) write a brief CV and reasons why you need support; and b) ask your supervisor to send a message to the organizers; c) give either oral or poster presentations. Please send your messages to "csqcd_organizers@googlegroups.com" by July 31.
Our budget is limited and participants receiving the support is recommended to stay at hotels which the organizers block.
4) We need to collect cash 1,000-2,000JPY to cover the cost for coffee and some refreshment for five days. Please bring the cash to the registration desk on your arrival.
