ASTROPARTICLE PHYSICS
IN GERMANY - STATUS AND PERSPECTIVES

 

 

Astroparticle Physics in Germany (formerly known as "Zeuthen Workshop") has been a lively, about bi-annual, workshop for two decades. It brings together the diverse community of astroparticle physics in Germany, covering topics from the high-energy universe to neutrinos and dark matter, from gravitational waves to nuclear astrophysics, including highlights from neighbouring fields. Contributions range across experiments, observations, and theory. Next to the exchange of new ideas and  the presentation of results and progress, this workshop series also includes the discussion of future plans and strategies. Complemetary to the specific annual KAT strategy workshop for group leaders, this community workshop is of broader scope and is especially addressed to the younger astroparticle physicists. The format of the workshop comprises invited plenary talks as well as posters, with a dedicated poster session and poster prizes.
