Description
With the advent of neutrino astronomy, with significant progress in cosmological and terrestrial precision measurements, and with more and more connections between neutrino physics and other fields being uncovered, neutrino physics has again become one of the main driving forces of progress in astroparticle physics. On the theory side, this experimental progress implies that many theoretical constructs are coming under pressure and new ones are emerging.

The goal of the MITP Program Crossroads of Neutrino Physics is to foster collaboration and exchange of information among theorists working in neutrino physics and related areas. Special emphasis will be put on possible connections between neutrino physics and dark matter, cosmology, nuclear physics, quark flavor physics and the LHC. Consequently, focus topics will include
  • Physics at neutrino telescopes
  • Sterile neutrinos from meV to the GUT scale
  • Neutrinos and the dark Universe
  • Neutrino physics at the LHC
Application deadline: 15 February 2015
