The aim of this conference is to bring together active researchers working on various aspects of the dark energy issues from all over the world, and provide a stimulating environment for exchanging the latest ideas. The topics that will be covered during the conference include the theoretical ideas such as vacuum energy, scalar fields, modified gravity, and back reaction, as well as the observational probes such as the Cosmic Microwave Background, large-scale structure of the Universe, supernovae, weak lensing, and galaxy clusters. The confirmed invited speakers are (in alphabetical order): Hiroaki Aihara (IPMU), Gary Bernstein (Univ. of Pennsylvania), John Carlstrom (Univ. of Chicago), Daniel Eisenstein (Univ. of Arizona), Shirley Ho (LBL), Daniel Kasen (UC Santa Cruz), Joseph Mohr (Univ. of Illinois, Urbana-Champaign), Shinji Mukohyama (IPMU), Uros Seljak (UC Berkeley/LBL/Zurich), Suzanne Staggs (Princeton), Paul Steinhardt (Princeton), David Spergel (Princeton/IPMU), Michael Turner (Univ. of Chicago), Alexey Vikhlinin (CfA), and Naoki Yasuda (IPMU). In addition to about 20 invited talks, we will have rooms for contributed talks and poster presentations. The registrations will be open on the following website: http://member.ipmu.jp/darkenergy09/welcome.html We look forward to your participation, and seeing you in Kashiwa (in Chiba prefecture, Japan) in June!
