SCIENTIFIC RATIONALE:
We are happy to announce the fourth Kashiwa Dark Matter symposium at the Institute for Cosmic Ray Research of the University of Tokyo. For the first time since 2019, the symposium will take place again in-person at the University of Tokyo Kashiwa Library Media Hall. The symposium will be held fully hybrid, allowing a worldwide inclusive and eco-friendly participation in an ongoing pandemic.
The Kashiwa Dark Matter symposium series brings regularly together international researchers from all relevant experimental and theoretical fields in current and future dark matter searches. This year, the symposium will include a focused session on searches for light Dark Matter from the keV scale down to μeV and beyond, including theoretical aspects and recent developments of detector technologies.
MAIN TOPICS:
– Dark matter theory
– Collider experiments for dark matter searches
– Dark matter direct detection experiments
– Dark matter indirect detection experiments
– Astrophysical and cosmological constraints on dark matter
– Searches for light Dark Matter from the keV scale down to μeV and beyond
We are looking forward the fourth edition of the Kashiwa Dark Matter Symposia. Also, please forward this information to any interested colleagues.
