Toyama (Japan), June 10-12, 2013 Conference Webpage: http://ppwww.phys.sci.kobe-u.ac.jp/~newage/cygnus2013/ The 4th CYGNUS workshop on directional dark matter detection organized by Japanese directional dark matter search community is held Toyama (Entrance of Kamioka) The workshop takes place at OARKS CANAL PARK HOTEL TOYAMA from June 10-12, 2013, including a half-day tour to Kamioka underground laboratory on 12th. Registration and abstract submission will open in March. Please think of attending the workshop and wait for the second announcement. Some information on the Workshop : The 4th CYGNUS workshop on directional dark matter detection is organized by by Japanese directional dark matter search community. This international conference will bring together the scientific community working on both theoretical and experimental aspects of directional dark matter detection and the galactic dark matter distribution. Directional detection of galactic Dark Matter is a promising search strategy for discriminating genuine WIMP events from background ones. In this conference we focus on : technical progress on gaseous detectors, data analysis (3D, sense recognition, ...), experimental results from directional prototypes, phenomenological studies, dark matter halo dynamics. CYGNUS 2013 is the 4th in a series of directional dark matter detection workshops. The original meeting, CYGNUS 2007 was held at the Boulby Underground Laboratory in the UK. The second, CYGNUS 2009, was held at MIT in Cambridge, Massachusetts, in June 2009, and CYGNUS 2011 was held at Aussios (France), from June 7-10, 2011. The proceedings of the CYGNUS 2013 conference will be published from Universal Academy Press. Preliminary Scientific Program: * Technical progress on direction sensitive detectors, * Data analysis (2D/3D track reconstruction, background rejection, ...), * Sense recognition : analysis strategies & measurements * Experimental results from directional prototypes, * Theoretical studies, * Dark matter halo dynamics *Related activities Kentaro Miuchi for Local Organizing Committee =====================================
