This workshop is co-organized by APCTP, KIAS and DMRC (see
http://www.apctp.org ,
http://www.kias.re.kr and
http://dmrc.snu.ac.kr for more information about these institutions).
The aim is to bring the experts in the field of dark matter and related topics to discuss on the latest
theoretical and experimental advances (both in particle physics and astrophysics).
For those who are interested, after the meeting we plan to have a
2 days excursion trip to Yangyang, a small town in the east coast of Korea.
There is an underground laboratory where the KIMS group is searching for WIMP signal.
The laboratory is located in the tunnel of Yangyang pumped storage power plant.
After the trip to the KIMS lab, we plan to explore the nearby Mt. Sorak area,
which is a very famous place with beautiful landscape.
The topics of the workshop include
|
Direct detection of dark matter
|
|
Indirect detection of dark matter
|
|
Astrophysical analyses of galactic halos (including the milky way)
