For more information and to register, please visit the event homepage: https://indico.icrr.u-tokyo.ac.jp/event/259/ The registration and abstract submission for the conference in November are now open. We will schedule a small block of time for contributed talks and poster contributions. We are holding a small number of the guest houses in Kashiwa Campus. If you want to stay at the lodging, please answer several choices in “Guest house in Kashiwa Campus” on the registration page (Please note the first-come-first served basis due to the limited supply). To enable students and young postdocs to present their work at the symposium, we will be able to offer limited travel support to participants applying for a contributed talk or poster. Support comprises domestic transportation within Japan and accommodation costs. If you want to acquire travel support, please indicate this during abstract submission, along with providing a short cover letter and CV. Please note that registration and abstract submission are independent steps. Deadline for the abstract submission and travel support is September 27, 2019 and the registration closes on November 1, 2019. Scientific Rationale: Testing the hypothesis of particle dark matter is one of the key questions in Physics today. While no conclusive experimental evidence has been found so far, a new generation of experiments promise a big leap forward in the next decade. Future indirect, direct and collider experiments will be conjointly in reach to probe the largest part of the parameter space of weakly interacting massive particles (WIMPs), the long-standing canonical dark matter candidates. By this, a confirmation or manifest rejection of the WIMP hypothesis is in reach during the next 10 years. The goal of this symposium is to stimulate exchange between these various next-generation WIMP searches. Therefore, it brings together Japanese and international researchers from all relevant experimental and theoretical fields. These include up-to-date particle and interaction models, astrophysical constraints, and the status of the next-generation instruments. Additionally, we aim at a special focus on the neutrino floor background for future direct searches, and searches for DM signatures in charged astroparticles. By this, the symposium helps to foster collaborations and to explore the complementarity of the different search strategies. Main Topics: Dark matter theory Collider experiments for dark matter searches Dark matter direct detection experiments Dark matter indirect detection experiments Astrophysical constraints on dark matter distribution We encourage especially young researchers and students to attend the conference.
